I'm currently running Wheezy Official Snapshot amd64, in a dual-boot scenario with Linux Mint Maya 13 64bit.Wheezy is a recent release from march 18 2013. been a while since I've used the "real" Debian. I'm impressed with the boot and shutdown speed, and did notice the quirks in flash / iceweasle.

It's called Rebellin Linux. It's gorgeous and comes with loads essential stuff covering every aspect of our computing lives.<br /><br />Would you please review it on your blog for me?

Unity hogs a lot of resources unnecessarily and makes the OS very unstable. However, Unity is getting better with every release and I guess by 3-4 releases, it will be much more stable than what it is right now.<br /><br />Regards,<br />ArindamArindam Senhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081209827341326458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-22545115592320243992012-11-03T16:29:19.056-07:002012-11-03T16:29:19.056-07:00I don't know why people hate so much Unity, I ...I don't know why people hate so much Unity, I find it very functional and slim. The downside on Ubuntu is that it's definetely not stable. I had a problem in every release, and that's why I use linux, to not have problems. I'm installing Debian, but got stuck on something stupid, the wi-fi key where I am is not on a HEX or ASCII pattern, so I have to use wpa_supplicant, and, well,Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15561578231012911283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-20710566643080813822012-09-30T02:36:57.553-07:002012-09-30T02:36:57.553-07:00Hi Jamie, if you are looking for the latest applic...Hi Jamie, if you are looking for the latest applications in Debian, please try Debian wheezy. I guess the stable release for Debian wheezy is just round the corner. Once the stable release is there, I'll try it out.<br /><br />Mint is the best Linux OS that I tried out so far. It works perfect on any system out-of-the-box wherever I have used it. Also, if you hate Gnome 3 or Unity or KDE 4, Arindam Senhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081209827341326458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-79834167436645986762012-09-30T02:15:46.958-07:002012-09-30T02:15:46.958-07:00I rate Debian as a highly functional desktop and v...I rate Debian as a highly functional desktop and very useful for power users. If Debian is hard to use then Ubuntu/Mint too are hard to use :), as simple as that. I used Debian 6 for more than a year to later shift to PCLinuxOS because of it's rolling release. With Debian the only problem is that you have reinstall your entire set up once a new version comes up!

I found Linux Mint 13 to be more stable than the parent distro Ubuntu - no Unity (thank God!) and the desktop looks really elegant and highly functional.Arindam Senhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081209827341326458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-8149319217006463172012-09-29T00:55:33.192-07:002012-09-29T00:55:33.192-07:00Yes, I'm about to try it.

Mint's look just kept reminding me of windows, and the concept just made me cringe. They've done their best to fill their niche, but that niche seems to be ex-windows people, and of course ubuntu unity dumpers (that's just as distasteful as jamkomohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05537444389963661942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-24598630112138949672012-09-28T01:43:48.217-07:002012-09-28T01:43:48.217-07:00been using debian since squeeze became stable. hon...been using debian since squeeze became stable. honestly i also dun get it why they said debian is hard to use. installing vlc and restricted codecs is quite straightforward<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-85210520509517265142012-09-25T21:03:46.753-07:002012-09-25T21:03:46.753-07:00Installing it and i hope it's more stable than...Installing it and i hope it's more stable than current Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS kuldeephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06961259618039846118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-35276683651785079682012-09-12T02:09:33.663-07:002012-09-12T02:09:33.663-07:00I have been using Debian for quite sometime and ju...I have been using Debian for quite sometime and just tried mint for a couple of days.
