| Erm, don't think that's supported by sidux at the moment, but there could be possibilities. Perhaps a sidux dev can weigh in on this question. |

I tend to agree with kelmo, KDE is the best. If you want something else you are free to install it but chances are you won't get any support when it screws up.
While KDE may have its issues, it is also the most stable desktop and has the most features and apps. Personally I will never understand why anyone would want to run anything else, unless you have a really old system that doesn't have the resources to run KDE. |

| For old systems, xfce and fluxbox are the 2 best options for desktops. |
