I'm looking for an alternative to Mint. I'm relatively new to Linux and want something with options but "just werks". What would you recommend, /g/?
>>54568833
Ubuntu MATE
What don't you like about Mint?
Alternatively, just install Ubuntu LTS and shut the fuck up.
>>54568833
Mint is already built on the distro with the most options without being DIY. If you wanted that kind of thing try out Arch in a VM.
>>54568833
unbuntu and its many flavors my friend.
>>54568833
Just install Ubuntu Server and then install xorg and a window manager until you work your way up to a usable desktop.
>>54568854
Nothing in particular. Just felt like trying something different.
>>54568929
I was actually considering Kubuntu. Probably gonna run a live cd of it 1st.
>>54568842
This. It'll even run smooth on a d2500+igpu.
Can confirm.
>>54568833
Manjaro to get you used to arch like environment then you should move on to arch.
>>54568833
Lubuntu
>>54568842

lel
>>54568994
Kubuntu is still very laggy
You're better than this, /g/.
Opensuse
>>54568833
If you like Mint you like Debian.
Xubuntu

>recommending this trash
>>54570380
I recommend it because I like it and I think it's under rated. Why don't you like it?
>>54570412
yast
slow as fuck
and it keeps dying on me
>>54570327
This desu senpai
Debian
All I had to do was update the WiFi chipset driver and it "just werked". Also, be prepared for minor network configuration. But that's it.
>>54570448
I like yast. It's not slow for me, and why does it keep dieing? Like the install breaks?
LXLE
LXLE
LXLE
Instala gentoo, pinche pendejo.
>>54570476
yeah.
>SCHED ERROR
Cant even get to the login screen.
lmao
>>54570744
What de? I've never had that problem.
>>54570764
KDE
Tumbleweed worked "fine", and by fine i intend half of the shit not working because yast is a big meme.
Leap ( STABLE LMAO ) is unusable for me.
>>54570744
>>54570764
It's a nouveau problem. Install proprietary nvidia drivers.
>>54570640
¿Cuando van a construir la maldita pared?
>>54570795
Cant even reach login screen.
>>54570805
Luego, estoy ocupado con tu mamá en este momento.
>>54570793
KDE is buggy and kinda unstable. Tumbleweed is only good when combined with something else.
I use leap w/ gnome
>>54570813
Use terminal
>Install gentoo
>>54568833
Stick to Mint
>>54570823
Shit randomly crash at different points in the install.
lmao
>>54570822
¿Eres necrofilio?
>>54570918
I've never had that happen
O instala Debian
>>54570920
Si :3
>>54570938
Tu ganastes por hacerme reir.
>>54568833
Install OSX
>>54570927
I have the shittiest laptop in existence.
A 2015 toshitba p50 satellite.
cub linux
Fedora,
>>54568833
One of the *buntu flavors, but not Ubuntu itself. After you're familiar with them, try hopping to Debian.
Yggdrasil
>>54568833
Manjaro could work, it is also a "just werks" distro and you have access to the AUR so you will pretty much never have to install anything from source. Everything is package for you by arch users with nothing else to do...
>>54568833
PC-BSD
>>54570327
/thread
Best distro.
>>54571004
Sucks
>>54571163
This. Fedora is great, despite the terrible name that has been sullied by the memes
>>54568833
Try Xubuntu or Ubuntu Mate, both of these are very good!
Debian + whatever DE you like if you use one. I personally prefer LXDE.
>>54571807
pc-bsd has been terrible to me. Went with mint and it has just worked. Easiest OS i've installed. Currently running windows in virtualbox when needed and mint for surfing and helping humanity. I am robot that got through the captcha
>>54571711
Do you realize mint is Ubuntu?
op here. just spent hours fuckin with kubuntu and all I can say is FUCK UBUNTU AND ALL ITS FLAVORS!! god damn this shit is annoying! it installed fine, but when i went to update my nvidia drivers it would never move beyond "scanning your system". got the drivers installed thru a work around, but it was either slow as fuck, the ui was too small to be readable, or both. i'm about to scream.
>>54573584
Yeah Ubuntu sucks. Try out opensuse in a VM or just install it. It's really easy and plain. No gimmicks or shit.
>>54573584
Mint is based on Ubuntu though.
Try Manjaro KDE.
>>54573799
Fuck off.
OP. There's nothing special about manjaro or arch. Just try opensuse for a day or two
