Re: oh no something is definitly wrong adieu debian.
I am not religious about distros, I said I got many guest running on
the server, this is precisly to have a whole sort of distro running.
Yet the server got to have one, and for historical reasons it happen
it is debian.
Now this gnome3 comes to the dance, and break the tiny bits of basic
thing I need on the server side. I did try xfce once and was not too
excited about the friendlyness of the config.
I used to have any kind of bugs before, that I could most of the time
work around, but this time I think people are getting away because it
soulds like a long standing bug, with no solution at debian while
solved at ubuntu. This could be acceptable for a little while, but
today it sounds like it show some weaknesses developping....
No big deal, as you said Ralf, the agile survive :), let's hop to the
next one :)
Yet I know that many valuable people have really given a lot to
debian, and it is sad that a simple sub-sytem can kill it.
Cheers,
Phi
