Hi all!
In quest for a usable desktop environment I went over
GNOME (argh! Now
I know again why I hate it) over XFCE (too gnomish) to LXDE (too
windows like) and KDE4 (yes, that was a rainy day full of desperation.
Just like visiting a home-improvement market: you almost get what you
need, but in the end of the day you've spent a lot of time and mony
and didn't get the job done).
Days got better after purging these nice DEs: openbox was an
improvement but in the end FVWM came and stayed. Now my FVWM looks
quite simillar to my TDE setup on wheezy :-)
Interesting I just realized why I am using TDE. Not because of its
kde-applications (I do almost everything in Xemacs), but because
- all the other windows managers are either bloated or using features.
- because of the excellent control center, which made switch from
debian to Kubuntu. But when I say control center I mean the one
which is shipped by Kubuntu (as of hardy 8.04) and which somehow
survived in TDE but seems not to be a true TDE program, which
leads me to my conclusion:
TDE is not TDE (TDE on (K)Ubuntu is not TDE on Debian etc)
