Re: GNUstep distro

[Riccardo Mottola]

Hi,

I think we are getting a bit out of topic of GNUstep here. If you have 
particular problems with specific distros, get help from the respective 
forums.
For example, personally, I consider Ubuntu a bad linux distribution and 
for the GNUstep packages it has the last time I checked it is just 
"debian stuff".

Debian for me works out of the Box and windowmaker menus work with all 
its fine apps getting added too, no patches neeed, this also in testing 
and unstable versions.

For me NetBSD was always a breeze to isntall, quick fast... No "stuff to 
remove" as happens on most distributions.
OpenBSD too, FreeBSd even easier!
Perhaps the only thing I regret about all these (but this includes 
linux) is support for wireless cards...

I use windowmaker on OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, Solaris, Linux/Gentoo, 
Linux/Debian and it works fine!
