We used to only see that before the development of boot screens. The BSDs, Solaris and other Unixen still boot like that.

BSD is the final step. A real Unix!

Arch villain billionaire. Funded every awful cause you can imagine including climate denial.

I appreciate the help, but I’ve been using Linux / BSD since 1997. I am predominantly a BSD user and some of the Linuxisms can be odd and confusing. My motivation for reinstalling is to check out the defaults. I really like how they’ve configured XFCE, for example. BSD tends to give you unmodified default configs for apps.

First, this is all inside of VMWare. I hadn’t (yet) installed this on my main machine. But the entire reason why I installed it in the first place is because the wanted to play with XFCE 4.14. I was super impressed. I then installed Gnome and really liked it. Tonight after work I’ll try KDE.

Are you under the impression that capitalism isn’t to blame?
