In theory, it should be similar. MATE is too bloated & slow on these old computers I'm using. If Mint still had an LXDE edition, I'd add TDE to that. Since that no longer exists, I'll add TDE to Mint XFCE. A Mint TDE live DVD would be better, but creating & maintaining that is beyond my skill level. Thanks everybody for your advice.
Cheers

Thanks, everybody. Good to know. Mint KDE is my main distro, & I use
TDE
on my really old computers.
I've had better luck with things Just Working when I install a distro
with
TDE already included. When I add TDE later, I've had a lot of problems.
However, I like Mint so much, I'm going to try installing Mint XFCE, then adding TDE. Wish me luck!
That works well. If you once like Mint!!! Well, I did it after Mint and MATE. But I don't suppose that it is very different.

Thanks, again.

I don't understand. It's clear that Exe doesn't have drivers for
many
sound
cards & wifi cards. But, are you saying that regular Debian Jessie with
TDE
installed later will provide drivers for most sound cards & wifi
cards?
Thanks

Hello, While trying yet again to get audio working I managed to clobber
my
TDE 14 setup. Want to reinstall from live CD (on USB stick).
Tried
the Ubuntu one; the installer didn't let me complete the partition setup. Tried the most recent Ubuntu nightly; can't even get to
the
GUI or installer program. I don't care much for what I've seen of PCLinuxOS. Maybe I can
mess
around with Debian/Exe again. But really, isn't there something I can use and recommend to others that just works???? (i.e., with functioning wifi and sound)
My Jessie with TDE14 Just Worked. But you won't get sound and wi-fi
with
Exe. Exe is all free (as in beer). Install Jessie, then TDE.
