The copy of Zorin OS you have includes a copy of Zorin OS Ultimate Lite (XFCE desktop instead of Gnome), so you would not need to try anything other than installing the Lite OS, instead. So you may also have more luck in the same way- only you can decide that. Gnome is very controlling, in my opinion.īy chance, I tried out Zorin Lite and suddenly, I had much more control, much more user friendly desktop actions and much, much less frustration. When I first moved over from Windows to Zorin OS, it was on Zorin with Gnome. Linux Distros also come with different Desktop Environments that offer different functionality. I am certain he would be glad to help you resolve that purchase or help you with your installation. You purchased Zorin OS Ultimate for a reason very recently (today, even, I think). Given your frustration and how discouraged you are feeling, I would strongly encourage you to PM and raise your concerns. The user can choose from several themes such as 'Funky', 'Glossy' and even some OS-specific themes such as 'Elementary' and 'Unity'. One for which I am grateful as it released the chains that Mac and Windows once tied me up in. But a learning experience it certainly has been. I recall all too well that first weeks learning curve. I have not been a Linux User for very long, myself. If you wanted to change it, you would need to undergo the same process.

The only difference I see here is that it comes with a Mac OS look alike theme already loaded. I do not do as much with Sound as many others do, so cannot comment on that.Įlementary OS has the same set up, the same procedures for applying themes. I use it for a lot of Graphical work, high speed compiling, word processing and data, records. I have been using Zorin OS for a couple years for far, far more than to surf the web and I never play Little Games. No it was alearning experience, I'll not be recommending it, rather I'll be telling people to avoid it unless they want to just surf the web do some office work and play little games.
