When you try to open / run what error messages do you get? (If any)

I have noticed the repositories are missing some things – although (so far) I have been able to hand install them.

After two full days of use, I still really like PCLinuxOS. (Although, as you can see, I still have it Dual Boot).

Well done to everyone involved.

The developers are busy putting the final touches on the base system and are slowly adding more apps, as time allows. Expect to have a lot more apps available through synaptic one the final version is out.

I moved over to pclos for exactly the reasons you cited – internet out of the box. Before that I was on ubuntu and had problems. I’m currently using .93 and waiting for the final release of 2007. I’m prepared to wait as i know the devs will bring out a finished product. The TR3 could be put out as finished by others but it still needs some tweaks so expect a really good distro. By the way PCLOS passes the wife test. She never used linux before but is totally happy with PClinuxOS. I hope you stick with it and if you do run into any difficulties the friendly folk at the pclos forums will be only too happy to help. (At least you can access the forums on pclos 🙂 )

I am more than impressed with PCLinuxOS and I am sure it is only going to get better with time.

Thanks.

What you found is why PCLinuxOS is still in testing, Texstar won’t put out anything in his name which isn’t perfect! Other distros (including and especially Windows) are not as fussy!

Anyway I am writing to you because you mentioned Ruby/Rails. Thought I’d let you know that the Ruby on Rails live development CD is built on … PCLinuxOS! (Or it was last time I looked)

I am using the Test Release 3 of PCLinuxOS and it is, excuse the hyperbole, great.

It is simple and it certainly does, “just work.”

I still hanker for openSUSE, and I am having all manner of problems getting MySql working. I dislike Synaptic at the best of times, and this seems like a typical set up for it…

I used to work for a non-profit organization and was looking for an alternative to Microsoft software products. I, too, tried Ubuntu and openSUSE, as well as Linspire, Xandros, SimplyMempis, Fox, Mandriva, etc., etc. Then I stumbled upon PCLinuxOS. Wow. Everything worked just as it said. I have been using it since it’s .92 release. We are in the test phases of the 2007 release (looks like one more test before final). If you look in the PCLinuxOS Control Center, you will probably find all of the things you need to set up your servers.

Peace be with you.

A couple of things have been said about PCLOS:
1. “It just works.”
2. “The distro-hoppers distro.”

Both seem appropriate. The new logon artwork appears to be “PCLinuxOS-Radically Simple.”
