Re: Best Linux?

Ubuntu is probably going to be easiest to work with since it has by far the biggest community supporting it when you need to reach out for help. I hope you give it a try -- you'll find that it's amazingly fast on computers that are too slow to run Windows properly.

Well, it works, but not as good as some others. It still works, though. Don't base it off of yours. I have a Windows, and it runs about just as good as my Mac!  big_smile

Re: Best Linux?

Ubuntu. You can customise everything and it's much faster than windows. If you still want windows programs run virtual box inside it (Best if it's dual core with at least 2gb of RAM).

Thank you for endorsing our project.  smile
Untill Orange _ is out, I would reccommend Pclinuxos or Mint. Ubuntu is buggy.

Re: Best Linux?

There was one really good one....dang. I forget what it was called.

Fedora was a great one. So was NimbleX. NimbleX was fun to play around with...I might put that on my netbook actually....

Re: Best Linux?

Does no one else experience the same amount of bugs in Ubuntu 10.10 as me? Gnome crashes periodically and I have to force reboot. 10.04 is great though.

Re: Best Linux?

What do you mean someone elses Linux? I was just saying that Ubuntu 10.10 is buggy for me. It may be just fine for you, it may not. I still recommend pclinuxos or mint.
