Pardus 2011.1 Dama Dama...Best KDE Distro..???

[jtak69]

smoking kills...

[kingzach74]

Is there a way to change icons and such? Like to make it all the default KDE look, without the deer stuff? Pardus looks really good, but I'm not a fan of all the deer logos and icons. I would love to see a tutorial that would show me how to make it look more like the default KDE theme.

[MrGizmo757]

i really Like pardus. The only problem i have with it is the Small Repository. and of course the ATI fglrx drivers. i think everybody has an issue with those. :-)

[MrGizmo757]

Dama Dama means Fallow Deer.

[sneekylinux]

@MrGizmo757 that it is, i have been already corrected a few weeks ago matey...lol

[thegroove2000]

A very weak review that really shows nothing much that Pardus is capable. Do a indepth review if you.

[sneekylinux]

@thegroove2000 how long would you like the video, 30 mins or 90 ????

[thegroove2000]

@sneekylinux I want to hear a bedtime story really.

[thegroove2000]

The best Linux so far for me. Really polished and a smooth ride.

[soccercrazed13]

is it possible to install KDE on a puppy? if so how does one go about pimping out the puppy?

[sneekylinux]

@soccercrazed13 yes it is,but on the last look only 3.5

[OmenX13]

Nice Review - Thanks.

[morgohill]

pardus has always had god kde integration well since i started looking at it in 2008

[foolsgold41]

nice, going to take a closer look at this one

[sneekylinux]

@emrextreme thank you for that, i will keep that in mind next time i go to the zoo

[MrPhilinggood]

@sneekylinux hahahahahahaa! lol sneeky. good one. :)

Just a little note :

Unfortunately, reviews done in a Virtual Machine are not really representative of how distros behave on real machines. Try them on a recent laptop, and plenty of potential problems appear (no wifi driver, suspend/hibernate not working, etc).

[sneekylinux]

@Svarog891 if you would have seen any of my other video's you would know i normally install on a stand alone machine first before i record the video in a virtual machine mate..nuff said

[Svarog891]

@sneekylinux yep sorry mate, did not remember that :)

just sayin', I tried several of the latest KDE distros on my brand new laptop, and your review made me want to try Pardus. Can't say it performed better than the others though! Really depends on each hardware setup.

[sneekylinux]

@Svarog891 that is true matey

[fruchesi]

Really nice distro and excellent review Sneeky. Don't know too much about Pardus, but if this distro were rolling, I would use it

[reallycoolman2003]

Maybe its me, but it seemed pretty slow on this video. It just seems so bloated.

[sneekylinux]

@reallycoolman2003 vm is always slower than a machine install mate

[taragwendolyn]

@sneekylinux not always... :P it's actually pretty zippy in a virtual machine on my main laptop, when I give it 4 cores and 4GB of RAM... :) (core i7 :P) Hard drive throughput still sucketh muchly though >.>

[sneekylinux]

@taragwendolyn ahh my young samurai, you are lucky enough to have the core space..lol

[reallycoolman2003]

@sneekylinux I do apologise, I thought it was being ran on hardware!

[nilsenth]

I really like this KDE Pardus i have tried it with the Lancelot menu and it is sweet :) thanks for this review :)

[mousegeek]

I liked the look of the folders. Great video. Pardus looks excellent.

[meoweo]

KDE is really forming into a great desktop, When 4 first came out i could never see it running as smooth as it does now. I almost switched over but maybe soon. Stick to my xfce cause i like fast and customizable

[legion7280]

Nice review! I personally don't like KDE, never been a fan of the look or feel of it. Always felt bloated. But I have to say I'm really considering installing this on one of my boxes. Seems fast, smooth, clean, and definitely not bloated... ok, talked myself into it :p I'm gonna go get it n try it.

[UberSquirrelUnite]

Looks like a great distro. And the included programs like Kdenlive make me want to try it out right now.Sweet review!

[KingHerring]

P.S. MORE STORIES

[sneekylinux]

@KingHerring very soon..lol

[KingHerring]

wow... for sure #1. Unfortunetly for me kde is configuration over convention... which I don't prefer :P

[HogRider357]

Nice review! I had the previous release installed on one of my older machines and it ran really nice. One of those distros where everything just worked perfectly out of the box once it was installed. I had some problems initially during installation, because of a garbled display as it appeared the installer did not like my video card (GeForce ti 4200). I hope that is better with this new release.
