Dont say lilypond tool made you particularly unhappy :) it is not so bad just
has a much richer feature set so it is harder to maintain.

Hi, all -
I'm just about to take the plunge into Linux. I have an older Dell Latitude
that I want to use. I was planning to use Ubuntu, with the default Gnome
desktop. Frescobaldi looks interesting, especially after my lack of
happiness with some other packages (esp. LilyPondTool). Does anyone have a
recommendation or advice or reason(s) for going with 1) Ubuntu with Gnome;
2) Ubuntu and installing KDE; or 3) Kubuntu with KDE?
Thanks for your patience and help,
Ralph
