DSL used to be pretty fun, running it off nothing but a mobo and stick of RAM

Used to be a lot geekier than I am now Tongue


Ps. While I "enjoyed" Gentoo, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone but serious masochists..

I'm using Cinnamon.

Being a UNIX Developer, I've messed with Linux from the beginning, and initially only interested in the technical, heavy server distros. I used to judge Linux distros, by how easy it was to get ORACLE 9i/10g/Sybase ASE 12 up and running. As a result, was always drawn to things influenced by RHEL.

Now, I've decided I need separate Linux for dual booting laptop, and dedicated Linux PC server.

Seems will be Mint on the Laptop, and Centos or Fedora on the PC server. Main desktop is '7 x64.

would suggest Centos over Fedora as Centos is more hardened for server use than the 'bleeding edge' of Fedora - from experience!

I use DSL to fix pc's and to prove the only thing broke in a pc is the HDD... and yes PSU, CPU, MoBo and ram...... good to go!!

If it sounds like a gorilla is trying to escape, turn it down.

Yep, Centos has always been great, until recently I screwed up some libs, and GUI failed to start on laptop.

TBH, my fav *nix of all time is Sun Solaris, but x86 version  install/hw support/apps, are "so" far behind Linux, it's a shame.Cry
