  • Given that as i mentioned elsewhere i did not separate the /home into it’s own partition like I’ve been doing since the 90s, formatting this thing right now would likely lead to losing stuff, i need to organize the files first before i do the nuclear option: A full reformat/reinstall. If that makes no difference in the end, I’ll have to consider the possibility of getting a new one. No idea how long will each step take so not the foggiest on when will i do each thing, and that’s even without taking procrastination into consideration… 😅










  • As someone who loved it, this was it. We waited forever for the next release which promised a full desktop environment, it never happened, we moved on to stuff that actually existed. I understand there IS ongoing development and even forks, but i frankly have no idea how is it these days. If i found out you can just apt-get a full E-based DE tomorrow i would definitely consider dedicating time to test it, specially if it’s still considered to be among the lightest, because man, when it was at it’s best it was very much the promise of a Hollywood Hacker style desktop, it was awesome and you could do nearly everything on the keyboard, plus it had a gazillion themes.
