Anyone use Lycoris?

| Hi'ya
Has anyone used Lycoris?
It looks quite good, for a newbie like me.
Any comments on it?
Many Thanks
Jase.

Hello there,
I would be interested if lycoris detected all of your devices- usb scanner,
mouse, printer etc.

i personally use debian, but for a strictly desktop distro it rocks, nice
candy icons, and looks a lot like win 2000/xp, perfect for a user
transition. it comes with no dev tools they are on a seperate cd, but a
single cd distro with all you need to surf, email, do office stuff, is
perfect for a newbie. It detected and installed all hardware, usb mouse, X,
etc, and even found and set up an lt winmodem. I set it up for my 60 year
old mother, and she is having no problems, and she has never even used a
computer before. would be perfect for an office/academic setting, lycoris
on the desktop, debian or <insert distro here> as a the server.

| I have tried it on a test box at work.
it networked well with other machines (win2k and NT)
setting up samba was a breeze
however, it seemed rather limited in the respect of expandability
i would suggest using a distro like mandrake or suse.
