Oh that's a really great flavor map!!

Lubuntu it will be as soon as I finish whats in my Que.

It does seem dogish with Ubuntu and seeing its a hog for resources, I'll try the other end of the spectrum.

thanks Dirk!!

I run lubuntu with LFX on all my nix machines bar one. It's simply the best option for crunching machines. Install the 64 bit version and follow my install guide for which 32 bit libs to install so you have no other problems. Also Vbox and Java. When I get round to it I will write an updated guide for Lubuntu 15.04 and 15.10.

I haven't done the update yet. Will do when I get home. Did you update or install. I had issues with 15 installing from a live USB and then failing ACP probe when you installed nVidia cards. Doesn't happen if you use DVD or install 14 and then upgrade. Wondered if that had been solved with the 16 install.

I used a USB flash stick to install Lubuntu 16.04 over Lubuntu 14.10
