Which linux distro ?
I had ventured into SuSe 8.2 pro a few years ago and after giving 9.0 a go, I lost everything in a crash. I went back to XP but still use Knoppix now and then.
I tried Knoppix 5.11 last night and thought it might be a good time to try setting up a work system again. Uses ... email, web site maintenance and browsing. Which is the distro that will setup with the least headaches ? No one ever talks about knoppix around here ... it there a reason ? Would run on this system ... http://www.abxzone.com/forums/cases-...t-yamawho.html _________________ Singles NRW Bad credit auto loans |

Basically there are really three distros that people use these days.
SuSE RedHat Ubuntu. They seem to be the mainstays. Ubuntu is so dumbed down at this point that even the ditziest valley girl can use it. So if your looking for very strait forward simple linux Ubuntu is the way to go. Cheers Cameron

Try Fedora (Redhat) or SuSE. SuSE is a very professional distribution, and YaST is second to none in my opinion. I suggest doing full installs if you have the disk space, of course. Doing a full install should give you a relatively decent version of Wine.
