Having a great deal of fun tinkering with DreamLinux! Been gone for a while as I break the Distro and fix it, reinstall it and break it again. Not that it is unstable or anything. Unlike Windows you can obtain the source code and do what you want with it. Needless to say when the code compiles sometimes undesireable things will happen.
What I learned so far is:
- Get in the habit of reading the instructions! This is not Windows.
- Thinking is a requirement, there is no substitute for the ‘ol brain.
- Backups are an excellent idea.
- I prefer the Gnome desktop
- How to install and remove software
- How to recover the desktop from a terminal window.
- How to become super user
- How to launch programs from the terminal
There is more of course and it will be covered over time.
Here is a shot of my current GNOME desktop:
Desktop with upper and lower toolbars stowed
As I learn the posts will accelerate. This OS is actually Fun! Try it sometime!
