What distro is most stable? (Debian-Based)
I am thinking maybe LMDE or Mepis.
Ubuntu is VERY buggy. I just uninstalled it. I need a new OS, preferably debian-based. |
Um.. Why not try Debian stable, then?
|
Because, debian isn't updated often.
|
Could give mint a shot then.
|
If you are thinking LMDE why don't you try Debian (Wheezy) Testing. LMDE is just Debian Testing with some fancy additions. If your bias against Debian is it is not updated "often" then you'd be better of with Debian Testing rather than LMDE because LMDE restricts updating if you do not know how to change settings.
|
Go Debian Testing. On another note, Mepis is Stable, but that's because it is based on Debian stable, so Mepis's software will be slightly out dated too

I agree with Mr.Alex. Either you want a stable distro (which means mostly security updates) or a distro with frequent updates (and therefore, inevitably not so stable).
|
Debian Stable (possibly plus Backports if you need some newer apps). I would never recommend Debian Testing for someone who needs stability as their number one priority.

Who marked posts 3,4,5,& 6 unhelpful? What was wrong with those posts? How were they unhelpful? No one was rude, mean or anything like that, even the OP was given an unhelpful rating in a subsequent post. Genuine question, does the person who did this even know what the helpful/unhelpful thing is for?
|
security+stable=squeeze.
Just update the apps that you want like Firefox or Thunderbird. |

The OLY time I mark one UnHelpful if is the person is making fun of me, making me look like an iD10t. :redface: Over time, I've found MOST of the answers I was given were truly done to help me and to those who have...GOD BLESS them. :hattip: I'm not the brightest crayon in the box and sometimes I ask really stupid questions, but to me, they're serious in nature, I don't know the answer, so I ask. Great weather here today near Shreveport, LA. Temperatures in the mid-80's, low humidity, sun's shining and a slight wind. Great day for a picnic, sunbathing, or playing golf, LOL! But, I don't play golf. GOD BLESS, Warmest Regard, "Buck" Amateur Radio - KA5LQJ |
