CrunchBang Linux

Welcome to CrunchBang, Ghostcruller, and hope you enjoy the distro!

We upset someone, obviously. How? You'd have to ask this person himself or herself. I would agree that it's unfortunate, but things and people change.

Opinions, too, are not objective and I would completely disagree with this quoted observation. Some may not.

In the grand scheme of things, it's not too difficult. Like any growing and thriving distro (and the community that surrounds it), CrunchBang is moving forward, and everyone who wants to participate can come aboard. Also, when you feel the distro is not for you, you have the freedom to disembark at your convenience.

Exactly. Try them both and see which one you like. That plain, that simple (though pvsage makes a pretty good point about a certain Debian-based distro using the Openbox window manager).

Welcome to CrunchBang, DraugR, and glad you're enjoying the distro!

What pvsage said. Stick around, whatever you're using (and, truth be told, if you're running Wheezy with Xfce, you're really not that far removed).

KrunchTime -- good work. I just saw that review and was going to post it. It's a good one.

Welcome to CrunchBang, vitaru, and enjoy the distro!

Welcome to CrunchBang, lvx, and enjoy the distro.

You're going to tell me that this is NOT sarcastic? Seriously? Give me a break. I think it's you who owe me, and the forum, an apology.

It's hard to say. How old is your laptop and battery? Do you try using the computer unplugged with the battery with it at "20 percent" to see if it's a false reading? (And I mention this because my daughter's laptop sometimes will charge all night and then she'll unplug it to take it to school and the reading will be around 20 percent -- she is on Linux Mint though.)

Meanwhile, you might want to take a look at your power management settings by right-clicking on the screen and going to Settings > Power Management to see if there's anything that doesn't look right.  Someone who knows more than I do (which is, like, everyone) will be along soon.

EDIT: See? While I was typing this, two people answered already.

Welcome to CrunchBang, WuFu, and glad the distro works well for you (as it does for all -- well, most -- of us ). Not bored at all, so thanks for sharing that interesting intro.

That might be a good post to put in the "Tips, Tricks and Scripts" section, savalaserg.
