Leaving FC4 ... possibly
I love my little AMD Athlon 4 FC4 laptop, but after it crashed for the second time today (while working on my wireless card, issued ifdown wlan0 && ifup wlan0), I think I'm going to sadly have to leave FC4. It's a little slow for startup. I'm going into highschool next year, and will use my laptop, therefore I'm looking for SPEED!!!! I want fast startup and fast open office. If anyone has an idea of a good distro, that comes with usb support etc, please let me know. (Let me put a list of what I want down below...)
-SPEED -Built in usb support in kernel -Graphical Desktop Environment -Something not SuSE 9.3, knoppix, Slackware, Mandrake, Gentoo (I love them all, but their a little too much work for 4 weeks before school) -Easy to install -Open office.org out of the box. -If you know how to do some major tweaking, PLEASE TELL ME!!! Let me know what you think. Thanks, -Peter |

Maybe if you list the particular problems you're having with Fedora it would be better to concentrate on getting that working before you go to school. |
Hmmm I am biased, however, I would say Slackware or Mandrake...
Just remember, it's quality not quantity that counts... KC |

If I were you, I'd go with Ubuntu, install it, then install XFCE. |
