Using Mepis

Post by Judland » Wed Sep 29, 2004 2:08 pm

I tried Mepis for a little while. It installed pretty simply from its LiveCD, however the QTparted app wasn't quite straight forward for me.

It defaults into KDE and has some helpful admin tools.

I found that it ran a bit slow, compared to ALT Linux. Also, the support forum wasn't all too helpful to me. Personally, felt basically "on my own" when I had questions.

It is more polished than Knoppix and Gnoppix. It configured to my hardware almost perfectly. It was nice to be able to try Mepis before installing it, too.

I'd give Mepis a 7.5 out of 10.

I don't know if this helps, but during your last show, you asked for feedback.

:)
