I'm going to recommend slint and I recommend when you install slint to start in console. The reason to start in console is you log in in console. The startx script you run after login. If for whatever reason your graphical environment fails to work, you at least have a chance to do something about it since you're already logged in. The nightmare situation for graphical users who start in graphics mode is their login doesn't work and then they have a paperweight until they reinstall the system. -- Jude <jdashiel at panix dot com> "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

I know nothing about Linux platform but would like to try Linux for myself. The problem is I wouldn’t know which version to try out first and that is one reason for joining this group. I am a blind pensioner living in Scotland UK. IF you could provide me with help/advice on which version of Linux would be best for me I would appreciate it indeed, Billy > > > > Sent from Mail for Windows > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Blinux-list mailing list > > Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx > > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list > > > > _______________________________________________ > Blinux-list mailing list > Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list > > _______________________________________________ > Blinux-list mailing list > Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list > _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
