Re: BunsenLabs Reviews

^Yes maybe it's a "facility" offered by Windows so they can keep some control over the situation.

Re: BunsenLabs Reviews

Not a review, but an implementation. "RaspEX Build 181010 especially made for the new Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with the very fast BunsenLabs Helium Desktop"...

Re: BunsenLabs Reviews

^That's very interesting.

It's an Ubuntu based system, using BunsenLabs as a DE. I think it will be good if we keep this kind of extension in mind going forward, and make our packages as generic as possible.

Most encouraging. cool

Agreed, even if the Hydrogen wallpaper and theming in general makes me cringe. tongue I like the wall but so easy to edit Hydrogen out of it.

-edit- BTW, thanks to the user on r/BunsenLabs who posted the info.

Didn't notice the "hydrogen", and yes the GTK theme looks like W98. Could use some work on visuals.

Re: BunsenLabs Reviews

strange to use the default openbox theme and still call it "bunsenlabs" o_O.
haven't seen any gtk in the screenshots (oh, in the last one. something isn't configured properly i guess).

and who still uses slim? hasn't it been dead for a long time? isn't it incompatible with systemd? see the warning here.

Re: BunsenLabs Reviews

A bunch of people giving their first impressions of BL - some favourable, some so-so. Some like the default appearance, one thought it looked like a toothpaste advert. My biggest takeaway was that we really need to improve our documentation so people can find all the things they say aren't there.
