I installed in my Arch, and I didn’t like it.
It still have a lot of improvement need to be done. It’s laggy compare to using Openbox session itself.
Openbox session is way much more lighter than this. I just can’t give it a go for now.
WOW, Razor-qt looks sweeeeeet!! I wonder how this compares with other light desktop environments. Once GhostBSD 2.5 or 3.0 goes to Current status, I’d be nice to see if they could also provide Razor-qt as another option to GNOME 2.x.
Great work peeps!! Linux/BSD/Unix is really progressing these days. My hats off to all the developers who constantly work their asses off to deliver these wonderful & FREE goods. :-)
I just simply cant prevent reading this. Its so cool, so filled with information i just didnt recognize. Im glad to find out that people are actually writing concerning this issue in that smart way, showing all of us different attributes to this. Youre a fantastic blogger. Please keep it up. I cant put it off to understand whats upcoming.
Yup, like evilestmark suggested, “a debian package [deb] installer would be appreciated in the future”
Can’t say that you’ve get devs but definitely you’ll get more users/testers if you can help opening up to Debian.
The internet is such a small town… When I read “qt based DE” on slashdot (over phoronix), I thought “sounds like that project from that guy at the Arch forums”. Hehe!
I’ve put debs for Debian Wheezy at http://www.mediafire.com/file/r70ublg32byrf1s/razor-0.40-wheezy.tar.bz2
It works ok under Fluxbox http://ompldr.org/vY3J2aw

I rarely comment, but i did some searching and wound up here rants and shouts » Blog Archive » ANNOUNCE: Razor-qt 0.4.0. And I actually do have some questions for you if you do not mind. Could it be simply me or does it give the impression like some of these comments look as if they are written by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are writing on additional places, I’d like to keep up with everything new you have to post. Could you list of the complete urls of all your communal sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
Any ideas of what I can write about? What would you be interested in reading? And how can I get people to see it?.
