Sentimental . . . yet not necessary. You can easily try out every ("good") wm/de for free. To ask the hundreds+ who use debian which wm/de they like is wasting your and my time/bandwidth. Check them out! I really can't believe that your asking for help to set up your desktop! Ahhh . . . maybe I don't get the point of this mailing list. If so, I apologize. > > Lisi > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
