Never used Kububtu. For the past few years I've used Debian. I've recently switched my laptop to Devuan (with xcfe as window manager) to try it out, and find it works quite nicely. It is technicaly still an alpha release, but it seems to be more reliable than a lot of commercially released software. It's probably not what you want if you are married to Gnome 3, KDE 4, or systemd. I like it because it avoids radical, take-it-all-or-leave-it-all achitectural change. -- hendrik _______________________________________________ mlug mailing list [email protected] https://listes.koumbit.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mlug-listserv.mlug.ca
