I have tried gnome, xcfe but not yet tried flux.
I downloaded fluxbuntu but I didnt realize it wasnt a live cd and I need to test it b4 I use it. So I looked at fluxbox but couldnt find the iso file!? So my question is how can I try flux? Should I download the linux mint flux? And is it a live cd? And is flux a lot faster than xubuntu? I tried xubuntu on my machine and for me it was about 4 times faster than ubuntu. |

Essentially, yeah: Ubuntu + Flux - GNOME = Fluxbuntu. But you can take Ubuntu (with Gnome, by default), install Fluxbox using apt-get or whatever the hell package manager Ubuntu uses, and then just use Flux. (You could even proceed to remove Gnome, but that's not necessary.)
That's kind of why all the different variations of Ubuntu are kind of dumb: You can easily get the equivalent of Kubuntu by installing KDE in Ubuntu, Xubuntu by installing Xfce in Ubuntu, &c. But I digress. |
