To ye few but faithful,
OK, several questions for you.
You see my server below in my sig. Nexus. I plan, in the next few months, to update it to AM3.
Thread: http://www.techist.com/forums/f75/little-upgrading-247472/
I am looking for more options, as the latest version of Ubuntu, 11.0.4, is giving me problems. See other threads in this section. So I looked at, in VMWare, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Slackware, DSl, #Cruchbang, Gentoo, Arch, etc; and was not happy with any of them. For the longest time, I hated Kubuntu, or KDE in general. As the computers I had were crappy ones, and KDE bogged it up. As I have a little more powerful computer, why not KDE?
I hate being without a GUI. So something like Ubuntu Server would drive me mad. I think Kubuntu has come a long way.
Questions:
1. Being a server, would a SSD help? I have a OCZ Vertex 30GB sitting around, collecting dust. Not enough for Windows 7, but Linux should be fine with it.
2. I am looking to fold again. Which way do you recommend to install in Ubuntu-like systems? I see many
3. What really is the difference between Kubuntu and Mint? As far as in system usage, they are the same. Is it just the looks?
4. I'll add more as I think of them. Don't answer this one.
