SuperTaz Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Does anyone use Linux? And if so, what is a good one to use? I was thinking about using Linux on my other PC. So far I have these: Ubuntu Caine Tails Suse Red Hat Does anyone use any of the above listed? If so, how are they? Quote
pipes1 Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 I have used red hat but they say Ubuntu is the better version now. haven't messed with it in a few years tho Quote
RollinCoal Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) I recently tried many different versions, mostly Ubuntu variants, for a home server that is sort of a desktop on my living room TV. I would stick to the Ubuntu variants for ease of use and the size of their software repositories. I don't have much experience with Linux either, but coming from windows, it seems to be the friendliest to me. I finally settled with Kubuntu. I don't know if you have tried it yet, but most Linux OS's allow you to run them from a thumbdrive in order to see which one you like the best. It is much easier to weed out the ones that you don't like without fully installing them to a drive. Pendrivelinux. Edited February 14, 2016 by Rollin_Coal_aka_WootWooo Quote
PBStaff_Nick Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Taz it comes down to what you are wanting to do with it, If you are wanting to do a lot of gaming with linux then try the Steam OS, right now i am running kubuntu but i have ran backtrack to Mint. But if i was you i would maybe try Ubuntu 1st and see how you get on with it or try Suse ( You can make your own Suse OS ) Don't forget that you can load a Linux on a USB stick and try it with out having to install it to a drive, so why not download a few of them and test them out and see which one you like best.

SuperTaz Posted February 24, 2016 Author Posted February 24, 2016 Thanks for the info everyone. I am still browsing right now, but I will soon make up my mind which to use. I am currently testing them through pen drive. 1 Quote
SuperTaz Posted November 13, 2018 Author Posted November 13, 2018 Not to bring back an old thread, but I am trying Linux Mint Cinnamon and it seems like a good distro. Anyone familiar with LM:Cinnamon? Quote
