Gday MATE

GNOME

>>61274863
Anything but xfce
You dont know how hard it was to INSTALL FUCKING FONTS

>>61275019
sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts

>>61274863
The real question would've been between Lxde or MATE, Kdm if your PC is shit. Don't fall for the Xfce meme

>>61275126
or put fonts in .local/share/fonts

>>61275148
What is there to meme about? You can practically make it do anything, look like anything. And the tearing is easily fixed by turning on compositing.

>>61274863
I don't know, but that's the right question to ask.

>>61275196
Xfce is not light as much as Lxde and is not user-friendly as much as MATE, which is a GNOME 2 fork, you know.

just install font-manager if you're that lazy m8

>>61274863
Openbox+Tint2

if your gonna install mate you should install gnome too

also mate is buggy right now

>>61274863
I happened to install only Xfce and MATE on my slowish USB drive. Both lagged, but MATE laged soooooooo badly that it's like it's 10 times more fat than Xfce.

KDE is so beautiful, but it's so fucking buggy and slow. Now that XFCE fixed its fucking menus so that I can actually disable mouse acceleration and set up multiple monitors, I'm considering using it again. doing those things on the command line is a huge pain in the ass.

>brought to you by the inventors of start menu ads
no thanks

xmonad or i3 if you want to be super fast
but it has a learning curve so dont be lazy, or ur cake will end up crazy

>>61275019
you put them in the .fonts folder.... how can you have trouble with that?

>>61275734
When I tried using i3, I had a lot of issues with programs like virtualbox that didn't like being resized. If some things have to be floating windows, it kinda defeats the purpose of a tiling window manager.

>>61275685
But it works.
