new to linux dont what distro to use dont no much command
 

i have never tried linux b4 but i find myself incontrollably drawn to it but i dont know any command lines or anything like that what would be the best distro to install i think 1 that would auto detect my hardware etc so theres no fussing about till i get the taste for linux would be ideal
p.s my system is only a p2400mhz 384 mbram and a ati 3d rage pro 4 mb
bearing this in mind anything that sucks up resources like xp w2ould be a no no all feedback well appreciated :o)

I have replied to your other post along the same lines.

Unfortunately distros having a user friendly installation kit are usually the most hungry of memory as well.
At the moment I'm running slackware on my laptop (celeron 400: 64 MB Ram only; KDE).
May be slack is not the simplest starting point, but if you like and have some time to waste
it could be an option.
Vector Linux has a very simple installation method and is based on slack. I've tiried it for a while and it works fine with low performance computers
Hope this helps
Ciao
