Re:Then again, Caldera eDesktop v2.4 isn't too half bad itself.

Re:Well, then I am happy to report that Red Hat 7.0 and Mandrake 7.2 are leagues above the versions of the distros that you have tried before.

I highly recommend either of the above. Then again, if you have less than standard or widespread (read popular) hardware, then you may run into more difficulties than others.

See my sig for my system. Few if any problems have I experienced …


Re:I've tried for 4 years :P

Linux tries my patience for about 5-6 hours, then I microwave the CD and say "Screw it"

Linux distros that have passed my wake
————————————–

RedHat 5.3
RedHat 6.0
Caldera 2.3
Mandrake 5.?

They all pissed me off, and got turned into coasters. :D ~Snap~ ~BZZZZTTTT~


Re:humph

if you're not willing to spend months trying to get your first linix install to work, you don't DESERVE linux.


Re:SuSe. Definitely SuSe :)

Re:I have found Mandrake 7.1 to be the simplest to install and use. I've heard bad things about Mandrake 7.2 though.
