   I've been living with Ubuntu for a couple of years. Not a match made in   
   heaven but it at least has a taskbar, panel, dock, or whatever you want to   
   call it.   
      
   I was messing around with a VM on another machine and loaded openSUSE Leap   
   16 with GNOME. As we used to say, that sucks green donkey dicks. Delete   
   VM, reinstall with the KDE DE. The host box is Fedora/KDE so they look   
   pretty much the same.   
      
   I briefly had Mint with Xfce. That's got some tweaks too and didn't look   
   like Xfce on my Debian work box.
