[brlug-general] Desktop Linux

[Nashid Hasan]

Just like you I have always been a KDE user. But after I have tried Ubuntu,
I really like it. It is very uncluttered and polished. You may want to give
it a try.

If you want to use KDE with Ubuntu you may want to consider SimplyMEPIS--
this distro is now based on Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (instead of Debian Sarge) but
with KDE. It seems better than Kubuntu. You can read a review at

And the MEPIS web site is http://www.mepis.org/

List has been kinda quiet lately, so here ya go...  In the past 7 years, 
I've used various distros on my workstation at the office.  Been running 
Debian sid for a few years and think it's time for a change.

Heard good things about Ubuntu, but i like KDE.  Anyone running Kubuntu? 
They seem to stay current with ubuntu, i just wonder why there's another 
distrib instead of just KDE packages for ubuntu?

What else do ya'll run on the desktop?  Debian unstable has a few small 
annoying problems that i could probably fix, but i dont have the time to 
fix it nor do i think i should have to.  It's to be expected with the 
unstable branch, so I guess i'm looking for something a little more 
polished. Suggestions?
