Re: LM12 KDE problem?
Thank you for the suggestions and insights. I had tried Chakra a while back, but had trouble with BURG, firewalls and printer set ups. I see that they have gone back to Grub along with some other improvements so I'll give it another try. The idea of semi rolling release is also compelling. I had bee...

Re: Mint 12 KDE
Looks like Netrunner servers are down...must be all the Mint users trying to download Netrunner. I think that the Mint/Netrunner KDE edition will really take off seeing that Blue Systems is now the main sponsor of Mint.
