No right answer here. Just looking for information/advice about desktop environment integration.
I've been using xmonad for about 16 months now and loving it. I currently use it integrated with gnome 2.
About the only things I use gnome for are:
gtk/desktop theming.
easier multiple monitor setup.
less x hassles.
basically, has a shortcut to getting the basics configured.
I'm going to be moving on from that machine soon and I'm trying to decide what to do.
xmonad w/
nothing? <-- and handle all of the above issues manually
gnome 2?
gnome 3?
kde?
Problems using any of the above? Suggestions based on what I really care about with using gnome for best things to use?
Seriously considering just going w/ xmonad but I really do like the little layer of 'not x' that I get with a gnome or kde or xfce etc.
Thanks.
