What distro do you use? - unknown897 - 17-07-2010

So...what distros do you use?
i use Arch and Ubuntu. Ubuntu is mcuh more practical, but Arch is fun to mess around on.

I use Vista.

...I hate it too, but there are no wireless drivers for Ubuntu or Fedora for my laptop Sad

What is the make/model of your wireless card? You can make anything work in Linux.

It's some proprietory shit that PC world thinks was a good idea putting in... Besides, it's effort finding workarounds :p

I use Ubuntu, but i've also played with Debian, OpenSuse and Backtrack 3 as well as Backtrack 4.

Also Sharn, i'm sure we could get it working. :tux

I have Ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition on my machine. I really like the way that the screen works on my smaller machine. It has really big icons that make it very easy to navigate. These guys really thought it though on this one.
