Finally made the complete jump to Trisquel (7.0-Mini). Longtime Windows
user, then made the switch to Ubuntu, hated Unity and Ubuntu spyware, so
switched to Debian Stable (Wheezy) XFCE-LXDE-net install with Openbox, then
played around with Crunchbang Linux (Debian optimized for Openbox), and after
watching Trisquel for the last 1.5 years, decided to commit fully to FSF
only. :)
Very pleased with 7.0 so far. Only problem I have encountered is not being
able to use VirtualBox which I have used for several years and did become
quite dependant on it, albeit only for a tax program that only runs under
Windows. Recently set up KVM but Windows is running much slower in KVM then
it did under VirtualBox, also cannot figure out how to set file sharing or
folder sharing permissions, which was accomplished under non-free add on for
VirtualBox.
A suggestion, would be to consider XFE as a default file manager as it is
very powerful, full of features (contains an editor, picture viewer, package
program similar to Deb) etc.. Not sure if that would be problematic,
however, since PCManFM is such a core program of LXDE.
Recent version of IceCat was a factor in the switch to Trisquel as well.
Very Very Pleased!
