From: "Margarete Hans" <whans@total.net> To: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Subject: gnome/KDE Date: Sun, 10 Jun 2001 01:16:40 -0400 What are the advantages/disadvantages of gnome and KDE? Basically, which one should I install? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-request@lists.debian.orgwith a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmaster@lists.debian.org
I'm not sure there are any at this point. The license problem is gone, so there are no political reasons to not use kde. In the past I did not use kde because of this. One or 2 of the KDE apps seem maybe slightly better than gnome, but you can run them under gnome as easily as you can under kde. They both have about the same quality, functionality, etc. I primarily use gnome, but that's just because I am far more used to it. But sometimes I also use icewm only, especially in vnc (hint, hint eXperts). If you dont have the disk space for both, flip a coin.
