Hi, |
| 22 |
I have always loved gnome more than kde or anything else. About 2 years ago |
| 23 |
I had to use Windows till about 3 months ago, and I came back to gentoo and |
| 24 |
used gnome again. But I didn't feel that comfortable and home, so I tried |
| 25 |
kde and some other desktop environments, but these felt even worse. I found |
| 26 |
cinnamon and used it with gdm, what made me happy for a while. But I |
| 27 |
couldn't find an easy way to configure this system to my needs. I found no |
| 28 |
way to change the gdm background for example. I googled for a couple of |
| 29 |
days. So I tried to get rid of gnome, but I have some programmms, that use |
| 30 |
it. I use Openbox and slim now, I could configure it within half a day, and |
| 31 |
I'm happy now. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
By the way, I got used to tabbing terminal.in gnome-terminal, does someone |
| 34 |
know a tabbing terminal without gnome or kde or something this big? |

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards |
