It could be that OOo is respecting the position that the toolbar is
supposed to go into if it was not turned off.

run CentOS you should thinking about uptime. (I wonder what distro google

I was under the impression that Google largely uses its own customized
Linux distro, though I'm not sure it can be called a distro if it
isn't
As a former Googler I can say we did use a custom Ubuntu called
Goobuntu. No real secret sauce to it. Just bundled with some tools we
used in house of course I can't say what because of that darned NDA :)

Where is Linux going in the future?
Well, I'm pretty sure a direction it's *not* going is toward One
Distribution to Bind Them All, though Ubuntu is about as close as it
gets. We're a very fractured community. If something seems works
well one one distro, it's likely to be taken up by the

I thought I'd hosed one of those back in the day... are you able to tftp /

the matter. some of this networking firmware lives separately from that
which you'd flash via the GUI. Good for fubars.

I believe the Ubuntu Long Term Support editions do exactly what you state: a
linux distribution that is supported for a long time, and you are expected
to go to the internet to get packages for it.
It does not, however, do the other thing you asked for, which is to add
modern features. I'm afraid

Yes Fedora 11 is out, with 12 on the way. It is a 6 month cycle.
If that is too fast for you,
I wish there was an attempt to take a stable distro like CentOS which
works without updates and add modern features to it. I realize that
CentOS is an enterprise distribution that tries to follow RHEL, but
the problem is that there needs to be something between CentOS and
