http://crunchbanglinux.org – Hey everyone,I have recently stumbled upon #! crunchbang linux and I wanted to try it out because I like Ubuntu/Debian and I supposed that Openbox + Debian is amazingly fast with the same advantages.Guess what ? I was right.It is a distro which is well done.It is pretty, fast , easy to use, powerful and based on debian... Who would want more from a linux distro ?Also as far as I saw the community is great too.I replaced ubuntu with it, I was dual booting ubuntu with Windows Xp, now I am dual booting with crunch and xp on a computer with an Intel Celero (HowTos)

Hello.

I have a Gateway PC with a 2GHz processor, 1.25GB of RAM, and a 30 GB Harddrive. My video driver is an onboard Intel 82845G/GL (Brookdale). I am running a dual boot with Windows XP and Ubuntu/Debian.

I would like to try a dual boot with XP and Open Suse.

Hello to this community 1 year 3 weeks ago

A few words about me: some years ago I started using Linux with Ubuntu 7.10, and from that moment I have always been faithful to Debian and its derivatives. I tried (and I'm using) Debian Wheezy, Aptosid (formerly Sidux), Linux Mint Debian Edition, Mepis, Ubuntu and others. Now I'm trying CrunchBang 10 Statler with backports, and I found it a very good distro.

Dual Booting 34 weeks 6 days ago

I know that Ubuntu has problems working on a Mac without a VM, but what about a debian distro? Would it be possible to dual-boot Crunchbang 11 and OS X 10.8? I'm thinking of doing this on a laptop that I use mainly for school and eventually college.

Hi,I am a Linux user since two year and I have realized that Debian-world is where I belong.. :)I like Gnome, even though it is sometimes not sooo fast with my 6 year old laptop, so I was trying to make it snappier using and configuring Openbox...that's how I stepped into this forum..and...wooooowww...this distro is exactly what I had in mind for my Linux box.. :cool:I like #!

Hello from Argentina 2 years 41 weeks ago

Hey! I'm Paula from Argentina. I'm using Debian Lenny, and I'm willing to switch to Squeeze. Stable is awesome, but you know the bad things about it. And I guess Lenny will be oldstable soon.

Answays! I've been using Linux for about two years now, if I remember correctly. I'm nowhere near being a programmer, but I'm here for the overall awesome-ness of the OS.

Holla :DI just found out about crunchbang. I like that its Debian based.I'm been using Debian for the past 2 years, really liked it, I recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a new laptop as Debian Lenny was getting a bit old, and I wanted to try out Ubuntu.

I have a basic dual setup with Linux Debian and Windows 7 (Grub is my bootloader). However, since this machine will be donated to a friend that does not know a lot about computers, I would like to install a more user friendly Linux distro.

I suspect that if I try to install on top of Debian, the bootloader will be overwritten and hell will break loose.

Advancing with Linux 3 weeks 5 days ago

Hi all

I have been using linux on and off for a couple of years now (Dual booting with Windows)- mainly with the more user/begginer friendly orientated distro's. I decided to move over to booting under Linux on its own just over a month ago on a permanent basis running UbuntuGNOME 13.04 x64.

It’s been some four months since I’m not using my favorite Distro (Arch Linux), I’m now using Debian.

All started because I’ve made some changes to my Arch Linux computer, and it stopped working, I needed something to work, and because the installation process of Arch Linux is not that easy or at least not that fast, I decided to go with Debian.
