    It uses the "enlightenment" desktop...which is suppose to be "Intuitive" but I find it to be anything but. Took me a good hour to figure out how to cut a paste a folder!!! (I wish I was kidding...) Permissions just to load Rhythm box remain beyond my skill level!

    But It does have some qualities, so I'll be looking at it some more...But Mint Debain and Mint 15 remain by far the best I've found.

    Have spent most of my time lately getting RID of fedora...and trying to heal..see my fedora post!!!!!!

    Interesting, I had no idea what Mageia-3 was...

    What happened with Fedora?
    Were you just checking it out?

    I'll look for that post... Fedora isn't for everyone, neither is Linux in general.
