Good grief, that's amazing :o

And for your number of packages in the system info script you should just count the lines beginning with "ii", like this:

Code: Select all

packages="$(dpkg -l | grep -c ^ii)"
Boring old GNOME for me:

Titlebars are bloat :)

Also, is it just me or has it got less noisy in here recently? :mrgreen:

EDIT: somebody will have to tell me if the noisy little bar-steward starts posting spam links, I can't see their posts any more. Please use the report button for that, TIA.

Here's my Buster setup - There's no desktop. :D

It's my home server that I run headless, and without a GUI (yet anyway, might install xfce at some point). This is the login via the motherboard's IPMI.

I'm delighted to back using Debian again, after an 8 or so year absence. I'm ashamed to say my server was running Windows Server up until last week. :oops:

I tried out a new Stretch install with the Xfce desktop on a now 12 year old laptop that took me through college back in the day just to amuse myself during the lockdown here in Ireland.

I'm really surprised at how well it runs. It still can hang a little if you try to do too much at once, but it's light-years faster than Windows 10 on the same machine.

I figured Buster might be too much, but given how perfectly usable the Stretch install is I probably should have installed that. The 720p resolution can be a bit of a pain at times mind you.

Nothing special. I just switched to IceWM from Gnome on Debian testing last night so I have not had that much time to tweak it. I have a core-i3 and 15 Gigs of RAM but Gnome on Debian testing with firefox was an absolute resource hog especially with RAM it seems but as far as the CPU the hyperthreading should improve from the spectre and meltdown patch hit with kerne 5.9 but Debian Testing Bullseye is running 5.8 currently it seems (patience is a virtue). I like icewm I think it is more for Linux or Unix Gurus than XFCE, KDE or Gnome because it unobtrusive etc.. and you just forget it is there letting you get into a workflow leaving extra RAM and CPU for things such as compiling code or number crunching and you can have terminal windows open with tmux or whatnot but it is not as extreme as ratpoison etc...
