I have never seen this trick before. I received a spam PM today (attached) from this user: http://www.mepislovers.org/member.php?u=13754 . There is no report as spam button for PMs as there is for posts, so this is the only way I can think of reporting it. Jerry, Thanks for the report. We are tryin...

drg, Well yes and no. They are based on the KDE 4.3.4 implemented in Mepis 8.5, but the features are standard KDE 4 features that I was referring to and not the added Mepis tools which are completely different. Of course separating the feel of Mepis and KDE 4 is as it is so well integrated is not ea...

I may be one of the few around here who has never even SEEN KDE 4. My desktop is still running SM 7 flawlessly and does everything I throw at it. My only wish is that WINE would work better for the two or three Windows programs I occasionally use. My laptop is happily running SM 8 and is quite snap...

I am very happy with MEPIS 8.5 and KDE 4.4. I was skeptical when KDE4 was first released. In fact I disliked it. As more releases came out I became a convert. And Warren has done a great job integrating KDE4 with stable Debian, not an easy task. I am looking forward with great anticipation to Mepis ...
