Distro-hoppers Anonymous (Page 41 of 52)

I think it will turn you again to a distro hopper. Mint is a hopper distro for me. And they release so unregularly the KDE ISOs that I think it would be better to try just Debian KDE instead of LMDE.

And those could have been my exact words, to my own exact words too, lol. Which is what worries me, there's always tomorrow or Monday afterall.

More babbling I guess, but what else are forums for ? Yep ... da infamous Arch is one of those couple I'd still like to try. Still getting the feeling ... why would I wanna do that to myself, with #! easy 2 hand ? And can't help but keep thinking about a Debian 6 install. Also can't help thinking after 2wks banging my nix newbish head on the computer desk, googling furiously and feverishly ... I'd probably just end up with a #! look alike, only not as good. Cause don't doubt Corenominal knows mucho more about gnu/nix than I likely ever will.

So while my brain tells me. Dood your PC is running fine, enjoy it, use it, stop screwing with it. The gnu/nix n distro hopper addict buried in there somewhere keeps telling me ... GO FOR IT ! There's always starting Monday ya know ?

Some common cbiz abbreviations. This will save me time and yet @ same time tell folks what the babble is supposed to mean.

Vll ! = ( Viva la gnu/Linux !)    Vl#!! = ( Viva la #! !)    Last but not least, UD ... OD ! = ( Use Debian ... or die !)

. . . am pretty darned impressed with xfce siduction

Hello guys

Just FYI, instead of "flooding" here, if we have to talk about Viperr...

@hinto: Trying kde will make you turn back to #!

Since this thread is one of the most popular in the #! forums, over forty pages long, more than one thousand replies, nearly seventy two thousand hits, it is about one of the most popular and probably the stickiest of Linux activities, hardly never leaves the first page of the off-topic section, therefore I suggest that it should be turned into a "Sticky".

Having downloaded and tried  >  aptosid, semplice-os, siduction <  these past few weeks . . .  I am still using #! set to 'stable'

Looking sweet DarthWound!

This may be on-topic or not -- if it's the latter, forgive me. I've been preparing a presentation for SCALE called "On Beyond Zenwalk" about some of the more unique (and in my opinion, higher performance) distros out there, and I've been using Salix, BLAG, Kororaa and, of course, CrunchBang over the last few weeks.

So while it's not distro-hopping per se, it is using a lot of different distros, and I have to say that none of them have swayed me from CrunchBang (though I do lean toward distros with window managers these days and I Salix would be a distant second to #!).

I just thought I'd throw that out there.

+1 for SalixOS ... installed it on family desktop, runs like a charm, and i'm now contributor for salix-wiki-fr... very good distro

Hmmm I see what you mean, but my thought was/is since distro-hopping is an off-topic thread that is defenitly on topic, it deserves to be stickied. But it is not important to me, it just seems practical.
