Hello
Im wondering if anyone can give me some feedback on using gnome.
Ive been using KDE since Ive started using freeBSD and it like
it. But I have recently looked at ubuntus distro, which uses
gnome (their version I assume) and it was very nice.
So, stuff like font rendering etc. Which is, in your experience,
prettier so to speak, to use? Applications and so on. The gnome
project page seems to be lacking version screenshots, or at
least I couldnt find them.
Any feedback greatly appreciated.
This is a difficult question to answer since it really is a
matter of taste what kind of look you prefer. And don't forget
you can change the look and design of your gnome or kde desktop
completely to accroding to your needs and wishes.
What I really can say - since I am using gnome for everyday's
work for some years now - Gnome has greatly improved stability,
perfomance and usability since "old times" of 2.6 or 2.8 .
2.12 is a fast and reliable working enviroment.
If you can afford the bandwith and the diskspace you should
install both and compare yourself.
Thanks for the reply. Ive installed gnome, having some problems
running it and didnt get a chance to tackle it last night, but I
will later. I guess I was just wondering whether the guys at
ubuntu have just done a really nice job with gnome, or is this how
it "looks". The fonts seemed smoother and window dragging wasnt
jerky at all, even though it was running from a cd. But I will
compare and see what its like.
