    Hey everyone, After a short stint with OSX on the AAO
    I decided to try another Linux OS - this time OneLinux, I realize its only in beta, however, are there any dedicated forums for it, I've been unable to find any, and surely there must be a decent following of it - Its Ubuntu without the hassles of wifi basically, and a faster boot time.

    Who else has tried it out and what are your thoughts on it?

    I've tried it and I liked it. The only thing is that I prefer to use fluxbox as my window manager and for some reason (not thoroughly investigated) onelinux with fluxbox seemed rather slow. Therefore, I didn't keep it, but if I preferred Gnome as my desktop, or was a die hard Ubuntu fan, I probably would have kept it.
    The only other thing is tha there doesn't seem to have been much activity on their site since the 12th, and I just hope it doesn't gradually come to a stop the way the Fedora Aspire One spin seems to have done.

    Seems to be plenty of activity on their IRC channel.

    Cheers.
