    I tried both the Standard and Server CDs, and started both the KDE and Fluxbox desktops off the Standard CD. I didn't see any great improvement in Fluxbox over KDE, which is unusual since I think of KDE and glitz and Flux as sheer function.

    But the KDE desktop was clean and attractive and the visual effects (like the fade-in tooltips) worked perfectly with no lag. I really expected some stutter on a non-mainstream video card at 800x600 and 300Mhz.

    Package management was a bit alien for me, but I'm willing to learn. I might play with it some more, since knocking down Xubuntu to keep that machine happy takes more time than just booting Slax.

    Re: who does kde best?

    I'm not a KDE fan nor have I used KDE much.

    But I think, apart from the default Konqueror two-pane setup, the latest version of SimplyMEPIS has a better setup of KDE than Kubuntu or Knoppix.
    I try to treat the cause, not the symptom. I avoid the terminal in instructions, unless it's easier or necessary. My instructions will work within the Ubuntu system, instead of breaking or subverting it. Those are the three guarantees to the helpee.

    SabayonLinux does KDE the best.

    SimpleMepis does it the worst.

    but PC-BSD is pretty damn sweet and gives Linux a stiff competition.

    I agree 100 %. There are alot of problems with their actual distribution since it is fairly new but it is nice. That's a statement from a Gnome user.

    Not think, Know through empirical validation and comparative analysis.

    It is the worst, sorry to have to say it.

    I also prefer Gnome but SabayonLinux and Knoppix have warmed my heart to KDE.

    Dreamlinux and Aquamorph, are the best for XFCE. Aquamorph has done the best XFCE (but then that is another thread)

    Basic question: which distro according to you and your experience does XFCE the best?
