hmmm, i don't think you're missing anything, X does indeed provide a graphicall shell to run a gui on, i'll have to rephrase my question to, does anyone know a GOOD desktop that doesn't weigh a TON on an older system. Or more precisely, an environment where you don't have to manually configure your menu's, that's a plus in the windows os desktop you know
maybe i just need a good read on X and gui's ? any resource would be welcome ... -----Original Message----- From: robert bronsing [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: woensdag 11 april 2001 16:44 To: Joris Lambrecht Subject: Re: OT : GUI Interfaces > Since X is, after all those years, not the most userfriendly piece of > software i'm looking for something else, if available. > Hi Joris, may I ask you what is the problem with X? I thought X only provided the means to have a GUI (without actually being one). I never had much problems with configuring X and after configuring X I never needed to do much with X itself apart from running it so I can use eg. gnome or KDE. Am I missing something? Of course, I am a newbie so it's likely that I am missing things here. -- Robert Bronsing
