[kwlug-disc] Linux on the Desktop

[Nelson F.]

Hi there.

Was just reading email bellow about going cold turkey with Linux on the Desktop and I was wondering what everyone experience is.

I tried a few distributions in the 'live' modality (no install): Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Elementary, Manjaro, Mint & Artegos.


In most I found issues (screen suddenly froze, mouse did not respond).


Fedora and Debian seemed to be the more stable ones.


Any suggestions? Experiences?

Thanks

Subject: [kwlug-disc] Blogging software for Linux

Anybody out there know of a good client for uploading to a Wordpress blog?  I still have to maintain a couple of blogs and "back in the day" when I had a Windows machine I uploaded using OpenWriter, a fork of MS's Live Writer.  But now that I've gone cold-turkey to Linux I'm in the market for a similar tool that works in Ubuntu.

I tried Blogilo last night but found it lacking (it couldn't handle photos at all).  It did have some nice features, though, but it's just not "there" yet.

Essentially the client sends me a .doc with all the new blog content, I copy it subject by subject to the blog client software then upload it.  Piece of cake.  But Blogilo choked on any article with a photo in it.  It handled the text-only articles fine.

Anyone out there have a favourite to recommend?
