I just ...I recommend giving Xubuntu another try. <br /><br />I just went through the same exercise. I'd been happy with Ubuntu for years until Unity came along and slowed things down miserably and unacceptably. <br /><br />Over the past three days I finally got around to making a move. I tried Kubuntu (awful GUI), Mint 12 standard, KDE, and XFCE versions (all three still a bit too slow and GUI not as user friendly as I'd like), Lubuntu (fast but GUI too restrictive), and finally Xubuntu. I settled on Xubuntu because it was relatively fast to load applications (not quite as fast as Lubuntu) but the GUI is far better - the best I've seen actually. I've got a Runcore 32GB SSD and 2GB Ram in my mini. Note that all of the above installs worked right out of the box except for Kubuntu (which only worked in try me mode). I did a fresh install via USB stick over wired connection (because of the need to download the broadcom drivers).Steve B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16898266119232902826noreply@blogger.com
