Topic: Howdy

Hi CrunchBangers,

I'm new to CrunchBang and just trying it out at the mo' on a few laptops.  I'm a web designer/developer in Gig Harbor, Washington, USA and my OS of choice has been Ubuntu for the last several years and occasionally Zenwalk.

I heard about CrunchBang on identi.ca, followed by Linux Outlaws podcast and, so far, am really enjoying it.  I'm going to attempt to install it as a dual-boot with Intrepid on my laptop so I can put it to the test. smile

Thanks Philip and community for your contributions to the FLOSS community!

Thanks, Philip!  And thanks for your help on identi.ca troubleshooting my Dell Inspiron 9300.

I'm in the process of partitioning now and will install CrunchBang in a dual-boot with Ubuntu for a bit.  I've installed it in a VirtualBox vm earlier and run it several times as a live CD and really enjoy the speed and simplicity of OpenBox.

Cheers!

Thanks Sheri!  Been using that name for years.  It's my blog address as well @ sewmyheadon.com. smile

I have a strong suspicion my next post will be about CrunchBang. smile

#! installed like a champ in my Dell Inspiron 9300.  DVD playback works perfectly as does everything else.

I've got a bit to learn about OpenBox and some software to install/uninstall, but I'm really loving it and happy to be part of the #!.

Thanks again!

Hello sewmyheadon and welcome to the forums. I'm glad all went well with the Dell install. Beware though, once you get bitten by #! bug you may never be the same again lol smile
