Help with WHAT????

There is no "best" version of Linux. There are many, many different distros, and everyone is going to have a different idea on what is "best". Asking that question is sort of like "what is the best color?", "what is the best food?"...it's all a matter of preference.

Go to Distrowatch, and check out the different versions. Download one (or as many) as you like, install them, try them out, and pick one that YOU like best.

Best???? Can you define it with respect to your question? I can not.

Download Linux here on LQ may be of some aid.

I suggest that you look at 'How to Ask Questions the Smart Way' so in the future your queries provide information that will aid us in diagnosis of the problem.

Just a few links to aid you to gaining some understanding;

Linux Documentation Project
Rute Tutorial & Exposition
Linux Command Guide
Utimate Linux Newbie Guide
LinuxSelfHelp
Getting Started with Linux
Bash Beginners Guide
Bash Reference Manual
Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide
Linux Home Networking

The above links and others can be found at 'Slackware-Links'. More than just SlackwareŽ links!
