I use Lubuntu 14.04 on our living room machine and my work machine, but the OS that got me started down the path of "LXDE on Ubuntu" was Peppermint 3, which was based off of Lubuntu 12.04 (unknown to me at the time). My daughter's netbook, and the Dell I'm writing this on run Peppermint 3 quite happily.

It's produced out of my area of the world (southeast United States), and the latest, just released, Peppermint 5, has been based off of Lubuntu 14.04:

I have no plans to install it, since right now all my systems will get security updates for years to come, but it looks like a great release that might interest others on this list.


I have always been a fan of LU but finally gave up on 14.04... Just too buggy right now, if you have been following with the group emails or not of the things I have been reporting.

Right now I have a full install of LU on the bottom, but I have XFCE installed on top of it, since this is my day to day machine, I put up with the quirks of LU for a couple weeks and finally gave up and put Xubuntu on top of Lubuntu. Sure LU is still there, just got to log out and on the log in screen click LU DESKTOP but in XFCE I hid all the LXDE applications but a couple. I think the only one I didnt hide with alacarte is the LXTASK I dont care for xubuntus I like how Lu's tells you CPU usage and memory usage.
