securitybreach Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Ah ha a clean living lad then. Not an old reprobate like me. Not even close....... I just prefer something a little stronger than Champagne and I am not too familiar with the European slang. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ichase Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Nice Abarbarian, I know you use Arch, what WM are you using. I think if I walked out of my house and saw a sky like that......I would quickly walk back in and close the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ichase Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 E-17 I must say is quite impressive. If I were to ever change from OB (WM) to a (DE) (Which I don't plan on doing LOL) I would definitely go to E-17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alphaomega Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I got a 2nd hand hard drive for the laptop...so I decided to put Arch back on it (now that I have more room to work with).

ichase Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Looks great Eric So you are still enjoying KDE huh? Love the way a simple edit of the .xinitrc file, exit X and re-enter X can put you into a whole new DE or WM. Installed Cinnamon in Arch, still using Openbox 99% of the time, but really neat to see how much different each environment is. I imagine you still have xfce installed?

V.T. Eric Layton Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 Yup. I'm rekindling my love for KDE, I think. It's been a while, I've missed it. KDE is the pretty girl you once knew who you let slip away because of some foolishness. Xfce is the steady ol' lady who's always there for you when you quit dreaming about the pretty girl. Gnome is the weird neighbor lady who waves to you all the time. Yes, it's easy-peasy to switch back to Xfce. I still have all my Xfce setting saved in my /home, so switching back will look just as it did before the recent crash. No need to switch back any time soon, I don't think. Nice to know ol' dependable is still waiting there for me if I need to go home again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That quote belongs on a wall somewhere. My problem is, I am not a big fan of change. I stick with the "ol' lady" aka OpenBox. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alphaomega Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Very cool!! Does the mp3 player have wifi or something? No, the wireless card is on the laptop. I'm only using the mp3 player for the 4GB of space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tforsman Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 how cult isn't that? Still using gnome2 with newer applications and still loves it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.T. Eric Layton Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 There's nothing at all wrong with Gnome 2. It was my very first Linux WM/DE. I still use it in Debian. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ichase Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 @tforsman - I look at it this way, a DE or WM is just as much of a "choice" as the flavor of OS running it. Individually we just have things that work for "us". I am impressed with many different DE/WM but Openbox works so well for me that I can't imagine anything replacing it. Now that I have VBox set up on a laptop that can handle it, I may need to run a Foresight Linux VM and check it out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.T. Eric Layton Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 You'll like Foresight, Ian. I was impressed with it from my very first experience with it back at version 1.0. It's not going to be familiar to you, though, because it's based on rPath Linux, which is a fork of Red Hat. You'll learn quite a bit playing around with it, though. The Conary package management system is very COOL! Have fun! http://www.foresightlinux.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
