I'm just lurking, since I'm a Linux user interested in alternatives to Linux. The command line is important for every Linux distro, just a few distros have a tendency to do some steps into the wrong direction [1], but if you want to do the PC what you want it to do, you can and should use the command line what ever Linux distro you're using. > Some Linux distributions (usually "the more professional > ones") allow easy access to the command line within X AFAIK Ctrl + Alt + Fx does work with even the oddest DE, at least with all sane WMs on Linux, but I can't see something bad when using a sane GUI terminal emulation such as roxterm. Btw. I prefer Arch Linux, it has got similarities to FreeBSD. Perhaps "KISS principle" could replace "the more professional ones". Regards, Ralf [1] There's just one exception that is really annoying, but it's possible to get used to it, systemd. Sure, crap as dconf is idiotic, but I suspect FreeBSD suffers from such odd designs too.
