Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

I am currently having some issues with my Linux desktop running Debian 4.x code-named Etch.  I love the Debian distribution.  All of my best Linux experiences have occurred while using a Debian-based system.

This morning, I ran the Synaptic Package Manager for the first time in a long time.  I updated a few items, and installed a few new items.  Now, I am having problems with KDE progressing past the loading of services.  I can get GNOME to work in fail-safe mode.  I loaded it up, and then checked the Services.

I was running, for some unknown reason, Apache and Apache2 along with Samba – three services I have no use for on my desktop.  I stopped them, and I removed them with the package manager.  t’s getting better.  It’s takes me about a minute to log out of GNOME.  Perhaps it’s time to make a switch to a more minimalistic environment?  I have been desiring to make this adjustment to my desktop environment for a while now.

The best part?  I still feel totally confident that my data is intact and secure, despite minor configuration issues.  This sort of thing was never a reality an M$ OS.

Love is the law, love under will.
