Goku Posted September 2, 2001 Share Posted September 2, 2001 it's up to you.. if you want something simple go with KDE -- Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MulletRobZ Posted September 3, 2001 Share Posted September 3, 2001 OK! Since I got a very good knowledge of Linux, here's what I'd recommend, Neobond! Use KDE! KDE is the most stable graphical environment available! IceVM and XFce environments are OK as well, but don't use Gnome! I used Gnome before and all it did was cause me trouble, especially using XMMS with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willywonka69 Posted September 3, 2001 Share Posted September 3, 2001 i prefer Gnome looks a lot better never had a problem with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MulletRobZ Posted September 3, 2001 Share Posted September 3, 2001 Willywonka, what Linux distribution are you using? If it's Mandrake 8.0, then you must've not used XMMS with Gnome! :D Since XMMS was the cause of the wreck of my Gnome environment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wog boy Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 Ximian Gnome it looks much better then kde and more stable thats what i think but every1 has different prefs. and before you ask, i'm running mandrake 7.2 (i'm waiting for mandrake 8.1 FINAL before i upgrade) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MulletRobZ Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 I'm not upgrading my Mandrake 8 until either Mandrake 8.2 or Mandrake 9 is released! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
configure Veteran Posted September 4, 2001 Veteran Share Posted September 4, 2001 Webgraph then don't use Ximian plugin, it shouldn't cause any problem as a stand-alone player.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willywonka69 Posted September 30, 2001 Share Posted September 30, 2001 im using mandrake8.0 guess im lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MulletRobZ Posted October 7, 2001 Share Posted October 7, 2001 Ah, the BlackBox environment looks really f***ing wicked! If I were to use one desktop environment besides KDE and Gnome, I'd choose BlackBox! The IceWM is cool as well and also, does anyone know where I can download WindowMaker? Note : I was able to get Gnome working as the Root user! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YahoKa Posted October 7, 2001 Share Posted October 7, 2001 KDE! KDE! KDE is by far the best. But lets get real, and use Windows for desktops people! Stupid linux-lover, linux is for servers (or if you have a cheap lap top...) ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
configure Veteran Posted October 7, 2001 Veteran Share Posted October 7, 2001 GNU/Linux is for server? Then how come they're alot of Home user GNU/Linux converted?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MulletRobZ Posted October 7, 2001 Share Posted October 7, 2001 Crap! They don't have KDE 2.2.1 available for Linux-Mandrake 8.0 yet? Bummer! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
