Hi all,
I'm currently using KDE but need to change. I don't know whether its just boredom of using the same environment, or whether its due to it not providing what I want. I have been using it for about 6 months, but I just can't seem to put my finger on why I'm not happy with it.
I'm looking for advice on alternatives people use. I have installed Gnome and find it to be aesthetically pleasing, but can't make judgement at present as I only looked at if for 20 mins.
One of my main gripes is Kmail. I have become use to it and need an alternative that will be as feature packed at that was.
Any suggestions are appricieted, bearing in mind I have only converted to Linux in the past 6 months.
You can install and use several different desktops, if you wish. Many KDE apps will run fine on other desktops. You might want to consider Ximan, which is also owned by Novell and will likely work well with SuSE.
