mark knows what's up wit' it....
a lot of other distributions take what's "really happening" and put it into a god-awful
configuration utility that makes a lot of linux users helplessly dependent on them. i
don't want to start a whole battle here either, but i can't stand some of the distros,
really. it takes me hours to deshit some of their crazy schemes... slack has some
weird things too, but it's a fairly genuine distribution.
once you learn how to edit a configuration file, you'll find those configuration utiliities
to be more of a hinderance than anything else. believe me, go with a dist like slack
and you'll be very happy in a week or two
no offense to anybody who likes the config utilties, okay? i know some people only
want or need what they offer and i'm not saying that nobody should use them. i just
prefer to edit the config files myself and i think it's a better way to understand how the
system works.
