SuperTaz Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Does anyone use Linux? And if so, what is a good one to use? I was thinking about using Linux on my other PC. So far I have these: Ubuntu Caine Tails Suse Red Hat Does anyone use any of the above listed? If so, how are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RollinCoal Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) I recently tried many different versions, mostly Ubuntu variants, for a home server that is sort of a desktop on my living room TV. I would stick to the Ubuntu variants for ease of use and the size of their software repositories. I don't have much experience with Linux either, but coming from windows, it seems to be the friendliest to me. I finally settled with Kubuntu. I don't know if you have tried it yet, but most Linux OS's allow you to run them from a thumbdrive in order to see which one you like the best. It is much easier to weed out the ones that you don't like without fully installing them to a drive. Pendrivelinux.

PBStaff_Nick Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Taz it comes down to what you are wanting to do with it, If you are wanting to do a lot of gaming with linux then try the Steam OS, right now i am running kubuntu but i have ran backtrack to Mint. But if i was you i would maybe try Ubuntu 1st and see how you get on with it or try Suse ( You can make your own Suse OS ) Don't forget that you can load a Linux on a USB stick and try it with out having to install it to a drive, so why not download a few of them and test them out and see which one you like best.

SuperTaz Posted November 13, 2018 Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 Not to bring back an old thread, but I am trying Linux Mint Cinnamon and it seems like a good distro. Anyone familiar with LM:Cinnamon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
