What Linux desktop should I use?

Please bear in mind that I am dumb, only use 10% of my brain and drink alot of beer and have been brained washed by Redmond junkies.

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!

i prefer Gnome looks a lot better never had a problem with it

[MulletRobZ]

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!

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)

[MulletRobZ]

I'm not upgrading my Mandrake 8 until either Mandrake 8.2 or Mandrake 9 is released!

Webgraph then don't use Ximian plugin, it shouldn't cause any problem as a stand-alone player..

[willywonka69]

im using mandrake8.0

guess im lucky

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

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...) !

[configure Veteran]

GNU/Linux is for server? Then how come they're alot of Home user GNU/Linux converted?!

[MulletRobZ]

Crap! They don't have KDE 2.2.1 available for Linux-Mandrake 8.0 yet? Bummer! :(
