I am using other, so called lighter desktops on some of my other systems, but those desktops that do not offer me multiple workspaces also severely handicap my way of working when at that machine. I have 10 such workspaces setup on this machine, not all in use but they are there for tmp jobs. Each of the 5 in instant use has a terminal with up to 7 tabs open at this instant each containing shells or logins to my other machines or to other projects I won't bore you with a list of. Now I find the rpi4 I just installed, has the giddyup to run TDE or sure acts like it. But with several active logins to it ATM, I really only notice the lack of the "workspaces" when I am at its own monitor and console. The multiple logins from here greatly alleviate that handicap and put me in a comfy office chair which my back appreciates, a lot. That rpi4 only has 2G of dram, but with a large, off its sd card swap on an SSD, it has yet to refuse to do anything I have asked it to do including building its own preempt-rt kernel, and all of LinuxCNC direct from a git clone of master. Currenty 20 days uptime. Thats what I bought it for. Other folks are now using that code as they can download it from my site, but I think I was first. But for now I'll thank these folks who maintain TDE, and do an Andy Capp and shuddup. Having apparently fixed kmail, I am happy. :-) [...] Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
