Ubuntu, it just works, I use it for my desktop & laptop, can't think of a complaint. On Sun, Nov 29, 2009 at 1:53 PM, <chris () blask org> wrote:
OK, folks, You've made up my mind - my son's laptop is going linux. He's the right age for it, I have the sneaking suspicion there are linux distribs that suck less and I'm long since tired of dicking about with his Win7 beta that just wants to reboot all the time. So, the question is: what is the best linux distribution for home use? And who but this cloud of mad hatters could be better to ask? I warn you all, though. If I take your advice and have to spend six hours mucking about with display drivers to make the windowing interface work (as I have with every linux distribution I've every loaded) I'm going to be spamming you all with every g-d-forsaken error message it throws up... -thanks (maybe) in advance, -chris _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
