Xfce on Debian 11 for MythTv (boots directly to the Myth screen in ~ 10S) KDE on debian 12 on my personal system and laptop On 7/25/23 14:18, mwilson--- via talk wrote:
I just installed Debian 12 on a new laptop and took Gnome as desktop/window manager.
I really insist on something more Xerox PARC style.
I had been using Xfce, and liked it until (following Debian 10 software updates) it began to act strangely. A few months ago it started to kick up a huge fuss about difficulties starting the Panel after a restart. About 2 weeks back, following an upgrade, the Desktop area stopped displaying anything -- no wallpaper, no icons from the Desktop folder -- just gray. That prompted this move to Debian 12.
I might go back to Xfce, and assume my troubles just resulted from being 2 major releases back, but before that, what do other people use and like?
