I've narrowed it down to either Linux Mint or PCLinuxOS. Which one should I install? Are there any other Linux distributions I should be considering?</p> <p>Also, should I install Gnome, KDE, or something else?</p>PhenomSat, 21 Aug 2010 17:31:48 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/1259/which-linux-distribution-is-better-for-newbieslinuxinstalldistributionwindowsWhich is the best KDE based distribution?http://linuxexchange.org/questions/484/which-is-the-best-kde-based-distribution<p>I'm looking for a distribution that allows you to use KDE to control any aspect of your system. It should also have taken care of things like theming GTK applications so they do not look out of place when run under KDE. It goes without saying that crashes while using KDE should be zero. </p> <p>In other words, I'm looking for a distribution that feels like it was made with KDE in mind from the ground up. I've tried Kubuntu and honestly, KDE feels like a second class citizen there. I'm talking an experience similar or better than OpenSuse 11.2. I'm talking a KDE distribution with not just the kinks ironed out, but one with polish.</p> <p>Does this bring any distribution to mind? </p>carleetoTue, 11 May 2010 20:21:34 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/484/which-is-the-best-kde-based-distributionkde-baseddistributionlinuxkde
