Helloooo Minty Folks!

[vtel57]

I just d-loaded and installed Mint on my multi-OS system today. Very impressive! I had to make a few tweaks here and there, but I think I have it the way I want it now. I registered here tonight to gain some insight and also, possibly, to help a few folks out.

Be seeing y'all around...

Welcome!

Thanks, folks! It's on the system and running. Once I get a little more familiar with it, I'll be popping in here more often, I'm sure. I just finished installing Vector and Zenwalk on my system. I have to get in there and tweak those up a bit too.

I'm running seven distros on my system these days. I've tried many, but seem to be most comfortable and happy with the Debian-based and Slackware-based distros. Currently using:

Ubuntu 6.06.1, Debian 4.0, Mint 3.0, Vector 5.8, Slackware 11.0, Mepis 6.5, and Zenwalk 4.6.1.



By the way, some folks at another forum (Scot's Newsletter Forums - All Things Linux) where I hang out were raving about a wallpaper I modified for Mint, using The Gimp. Here's a screenshot of my Mint:

And here's the wallpaper itself, should anyone want it:

Linux Mint Rocks!

It's guaranteed to scare roaches and other critters out of your computer room (possibly even your wife) while it's displayed on your monitor.

Have FUN!

Hey bigbear!

Yup! I am a forum junkie... have been since waaaaay back in my USENET days.

I've been so busy with Vector and Zen, that I haven't been able to get back to Mint. The good thing is that Mint was very quick and easy to set up. I did it all in one sitting. Vector and Zen gave me some headaches, but I got past most of those, too. I haven't had much time to get to LGU either, lately. I just went by there tonight and posted a quickie post.

See ya' there...
