starship_troopers Posted June 5, 2009 CID Share Posted June 5, 2009 So, I'm downloading mandriva linux to dual boot it on my desktop with xp pro. i prefer KDE 4. but just curious to see what you guys prefer. if you dont know what kde and gnome are then here is a short little story on how they came about. and a little info on them http://itmanagement.earthweb.com/article.php/3671906 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudmanc4 Posted June 5, 2009 CID Share Posted June 5, 2009 gnome w/o a doubt, although kde has come a long way. I suggest that you do it straight outta the box strictly text only Then, you know how to use an OS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starship_troopers Posted June 5, 2009 Author CID Share Posted June 5, 2009 i actually like text installs better. just seems more complicated (its not really that bad though) but it makes me feel like a powerful nerd :2funny: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdsph Posted July 16, 2009 CID Share Posted July 16, 2009 greetings! gnome for desktop users, kde for advanced users or programmers, xfce for old computers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
