I've always used Red Hat Linux, in the past. I'm trying different
distros, looking for a successor to it, for personal use and to
recommend at work, on our servers (I'm the admin).
I've never used Debian before. I thought I'd start by installing it on
my laptop (Dell Latitude CPx J750GT). Any known issues/gotchas with that
particular model, that I should be aware of? I'll be wanting to run X,
and use it on both wired and wireless (Orinoco Gold card) networks -
multiple different networks of both types, so I'll need to be able to
switch from one to another easily.
I downloaded all eight Debian CDs, but before I burn all of them, I was
wondering which ones I actually need. I don't have rewritable media
handy, so it'd be nice to not waste write-once media on CDs I don't need. :)
TIA,
