Twister UI

[DexTheDog]

So I have been rebuilding an Emachines pc to try and replicate the look and feel of my first desktop pc both pcs originally ran windows 7. I want to use Twister UI to replicate the Windows 7 look (I have already tested this and it works ). I at first had Linux Mint Cinnamon installed. But does anyone know of other distros that would be good to try?

I know. What I was asking if anyone knows of a distro that it might be worth trying to install it on like Peppermint or Expirion. I am guessing that any Ubuntu based distro would support it.

Your guess is as good as ours. Try it. (A Timeshift snapshot or other backup first might not be a bad idea though.)

I'm guessing the developers only specified 2 Ubuntu-based distros for a reason. And one of these (Mint) still needed special instructions to be followed after the install.

Your best bet is to ask the devs yourself:

If memory serves, Expirion is now Xfce - and it's Ubuntu based. Give it a shot and let us know how it works.
