You can test it live and choose your desired desktop layout in advance. Was this review helpful?

I was going to try rolling linux on my (very) old Acer laptop and selected the following distros: - Artix - no systemd, lean and promissing - RebornOS - well assembled and probably the best Arch distro among Arch-like ones. Artix (xfce s6) installed flawlessly and immediatelly failed to recognize available networks. NetwokManager showed nothing not even a hope. Old Acer was cut from from the world. Repeated tries with different DE and Community edition gave the same result. Probably there are ways ro repair network functionality after the installation but then it all should be included into the installation scrypt. Next one... RebornOS. 3 tries of installation with different configurations but with the same result - ERROR in the middle of the process and inevitable abort. Which brings us to Gecko - the openSUSE implementation definitelly better than the SUSE itself. NIce, fast and flawless installation, functional Xfce screen. Stable distro, ready to run after (long) zypper update. Hope for many happy updates. 9 (not 10) so far to give Gecko the place for improvement. GeckoLinux, thank you. Was this review helpful?

Found Gecko Cinnamon. ----- Beautiful. Pros: Ease of use Live usb Easy install YaST ----- Works well for me. PACKAGE install - uninstall Just the right amount of software for daily use. Easy to manage Runs smooth for me. Cons: None Learn the Linux Command Line and use the Terminal and you will not have any problems. Rolling forward - any problems roll back. Big THANKS to the developer. Try it you will love it.................. Was this review helpful? Yes No See all 44 reader reviews of GeckoLinux...
