I have a text file full of tips where I jot down commands that I need to remember.
I've decided to turn them into blog posts instead.

Weird WM troubles? Delete that folder!

And whenever I delete these desktop environment config folders, it's always because someone suggested it.

I could have said the same thing regarding your blog post.

Solus is a nice piece of work. I decided to take a look at it because I was impressed at how the maintainer comports himself on the Late Night Linux podcast.

He wrote the default desktop, which is called Budgie, and works nicely. The OS itself is (yet another) Ubuntu derivative, but easily one of the better ones. Update: On a second look, Solus may not be Ubuntu-based. It doesn't use apt; it uses YAML packaging, which I've not heard of before. I'll have to look into it more deeply, even though it is built somewhat on Gnome.

It won't lure me away from Slackware, but I've enjoyed getting to know it.

When I first installed it, I tried to use the Firefox Sync and it did not work heaven knows why Mozilla didn't like me that day. Today, I deleted the ~/.mozilla directory, thanks to your blog post, restarted Firefox, and was able to use the sync.

Solus looks like a cool distro! I like the slim black look, I used to use Crunchbang on my laptop.

And whenever I delete these desktop environment config folders, it's always because someone suggested it. After it inevitably works... "Why didn't I think of that?"
