That's very true, for example I'm using Kanotix at the moment and
enjoying it very much, and still like Mepis as well. both Debian based,
but some very handy tweaks. The Kano distro is winning at the moment
since it has KDE 3.5 and Kernel 2.6.12 iirc, very nice anyway. I was
even able to install Freevo this morning, which I think is still a
problem (with a python version conflict) on Ubuntu at the moment. Mind
you it may have been resolved by now.

too much of a fuss.
I do not understand why you narrow it down to only two distros for those two
criteria. IMHO there are several others which satisfy them.
