Yes ... how do you read it 😀
As far as I can remember, this is the longest time a distro has lasted me, almost 5 months since I installed Debian Testing + KDE, it will be 5 months on the 19th.
How do i know
Some time ago we put a little tip to know when we install our system: How to know when we install our Linux
He shows me the Winners will be announced in March.
How long have you been stable? … LOL.

This is how Debian is. From where I am writing, it has been installed for almost 2 years and is supercharged, with the disk almost full running 24 hours a day (because the power button works badly, I know I am hung), so and the whole system It responds as just installed. To be honest this machine made me appreciate Debian a lot, not only to me, but to my cousins who lived by formatting Windows XP, only that they call it Linux
and how do you keep your system clean? I don't know why I have the feeling that I always have caches and temporary files, corrupted configurations etc….
P.S. I have ubuntu 12.04lts and the brazier is not working well.
I worry about not installing many packages, that is, I know the applications that I use ... the ones that I want to use, I try to maintain without much clutter, or compile an application that destroys something here haha.
Regarding the obsolete settings, I leave them there in the system, I don't think they affect.
And the storms the same haha.
I don't actually do much to keep my system healthy, I just don't install any .deb it finds HAHA.
To keep the system clean
- Bleachbit
- I don't install anything outside of the official repos (except the latest versions of Netbeans). For example since they removed kompozer from testing I only use bluefish
- I only install what I use and if I stop using it I delete it

Feb 9 2011
From Jul 6 18:43 with Sabayon 9
I have not tried another distro since I switched to fedora before I used ubuntu but I lived trying other distros but after the tests I reinstalled ubuntu but as the years went by I realized that that was wasting time because all distros offer the same software to a single click, however when Ubuntu 12.04 came out everything was a total instability shit and although it has been months and many updates since it came out, the message still comes out that Ubuntu has an internal error or something like that, I know because I have it virtualized .
Fedora, on the other hand, runs well, the gnome shell is fast and beautiful and sometimes I start it in Kde which also goes super because the kernel is always updated, it is already in 3.5 and without problems the system or applications crashes and as I have activated the kde repo this is always updated to the latest stable version in fact I would dare to say with full mouth and in the face of any adversity that fedora despite being modern at the software level is much more stable than ubuntu and I do it use 4 years in a row
Inadvertently I remembered when people who used Windows told me: «Ufff I haven't formatted my machine for half a year! This time it lasted me »
Just as there are users who like to reinstall every two by three, there are users who have not thought about formatting or reinstalling in a long time. At least most of the machines of the people to whom I installed or recommended to use Ubuntu 10.04 two years ago are still in use almost daily, and by now a good part of those people are already users with regular notions about GNU / Linux that work quietly on their machines and if they wish they would change their distro periodically but they don't (they are in the right to do so if it makes sense to them).
I just switched to Mint Maya since May 27th and I hope to stay with it until Ubuntu 12.04.1 is released or until Debian stable is released in 2013 and stay with it until the day that lightning rips my CPU to shreds or that an earthquake swallows my desk with everything and monitor under the ground. Otherwise I don't change anything. (LOL)
Because that's what GNU / Linux is about, choosing what we like and feeling comfortable with something that works transparently.
Little more than 3 years updating "my precious" Xubuntu.
5 months without your beloved Arch Linux, I pity you, hahaha.
HAHAHAHAHA nah don't do it, with Debian I'm doing wonders haha

The day of my birthday hahaha it occurred to me to clean up Windows and Debian. Everything more organized now in an Ext3 partition (accessed by both without problems).
I have not reinstalled or formatted for 3 years, until I completely "screwed up" with the famous pacman -Sfyu when updating glibc in Archlinux

Debian Sid. To keep the system clean, you just need to use apt.
apt-get –purge autoremove will throw everything away in terms of outdated applications and settings. 🙂 But be careful.
Jul 20 14:13 I am almost a month old, but with Xubuntu 11.04 I think it will last 6 months I think that is my record.
Good compi, I use Ubuntu Tweak in PinguyOS it is installed by default but in Ubuntu you can install it from the repositories.
The Brasero thing happens to me too. Badly burns CDs and DVDs even though it doesn't show any errors. At the moment I have chosen to uninstall it and replace it with K3B, which is also more familiar to me.
If I find out about something, I'll let you know.
Greetings.
Excellent tip works great as soon as I have my personal computer I will try to see how long I have been in GNU / Linux 🙂 Currently I have another to kill the fever of versionitis 😀
I had more than 3 months since I ventured to install Arch Linux, to enter the Linux world for the first time, once you configure everything and leave it alone and nothing else alone as you want it, everything works wonderfully, without putting hand. Obviously I think it helped me that I know my hardware very well (my P4, 2 gb of ram, 2 ide of 120 gb, an rtl8187. Geforce fx 5200 (nouveau), that if I suffered (diplomatically I LEARNED A LOT) the first time, reinstall no because it was wrong but because I simply wanted to use the new Arch installation method. GO SURPRISE I INSTALLED IT VERY QUICKLY AND WELL, before I had it with slim, using openbox or nothing else compiz, now I just leaned for xfce4 and I loved it.
and I think it will last much more than 5 months with my dear ARCH (if only a little more than 3 months and what they call windows and use for years, it has been relegated to some partition of my hard drive, greetings to all.

Well, my chakra has already been on its partition for 5 months and Windows 8 2 months on yours 🙂
Is the command in the other input reliable? I put it in the terminal and it marks me on January 7, 2012, but my Arch has been installed since November 2011… ¿? Anyway, it seems a lie, but how happy I am in Arch, hehe, although the changes of the last weeks have demanded a little more attention.
Now that I think about it, I remember in January I moved the Root partition to another disk, to leave only Arch on my computer and get rid of Windows and Chakra. I guess that's the reason;).

Haha that is a record!
I have almost a year with archlinux, and I think I will continue like this in the future! arch I get rid of the knack of jumping from distro to distro, or as the "versionitis" suffered by other users is known 😀
I still use windows now, because I screwed up the CD burner
Use a pendrive men!
