So many distros - so little time. Suse - has it's own way of doing maintenance, so you wont learn much about the "typical" linux approach. lycoris - good and easy, but major departure from what most people expect for kde look and feel. ELX - started out good, but bogged down in building a stable release, one of the slowest running distros. Slackware - an old standard - well worth a try. Gentoo - a new departure - totally from sources, lengthy install process. RedHat - why not, every one else is. Libranet - to give you an exposure to debian where GNU/LINUX is writ large. enjoy, -- Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD? gentoo(since 01/01/01) 2.4.18+(ext3) xfce-sylpheed-mozilla _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
