This is the only DE that I have been completely comfortable with... now... how can I use this and still look at cat pictures on the interwebs?

@byllgrimI should have said WM. I use DWM when I need more cat pictures. 😃 I am just more comfortable with TTY. 😃

@poetgrant @byllgrim do you use screen/tmux, or is having two terminals on the same tty too much for you?

@Wolf480plI use screen, but most of the time I just need one terminal... except for right now because I'm stupid and decided to upgrade to Slackware Current so I could have a newer version of nano-editor... I know... that's a bad reason to do a huge upgrade....@byllgrim

@Wolf480pl @byllgrim@poetgrantDepending on distro you will have access to various linux framebuffer based apps.Try out w3m and see images, distro depending you can use mplayer or gstreamer via the framebuffer for those cat/dog/aardvark videos too.I have a list somewhere of the apps I used when I did not use XAlso check out directfb, although I am not sure if they are still an active project (they did an in kernel framebuffer based window manager too)

@poetgrantWhen I have a working machine of that spec I will post/blog the results I have some p2 laptops that need repairs and are incomplete so I may just buy one in good cosmetic condition from ebay over the next couple months or so and put a new battery in @byllgrim @Wolf480pl
