*Waves hello sheepishly*

Hi!
I’m new to openSUSE, but I’ve been using linux for a few years now (just the 'buntus and mint), but recently I’ve fallen in love with xfce, and I read in a few places that openSUSE is the best distro for it, so here I am!
Well, I’ve yet to actually get it working (hence I have a post in the technical section), but I thought it would only be polite to introduce myself before demanding technical help :wink:
So yeah - hi!

Welcome to the openSUSE Forums SilurainCrusader. I have no doubt that we’ll get your questions answered and on the road to xfce-bliss! :slight_smile:

Hi there SilurianCrusader. I’ve had a few spins with Ubuntu & Kubuntu &
Mint and found them all to be pretty nice, except I get confused by the
latest Ubuntu (I mostly have used KDE).

Anyway, I hope you like it here and hope you get the right help.

Thanks guys! It’s always good to feel welcome :slight_smile:
I’m still using xubuntu on my newer, faster machine which is my main computer. I figured I’d experiment on something less critical before taking the plunge - I heard the repositories and package system for openSUSE can be a bit tricky, and I’ve certainly grown very comfortable with synaptic and .deb files.

A warm welcome here. Don’t worry I came to openSUSE from Ubuntu as well
and got familiar with zypper really fast. I’m sure You’ll like it as well.
