Another opinion. I use Debian elsewhere, but found installing it on a new laptop a bit fiddly and time consuming. As well as having to build a custom kernel, it also needed tweaks for wireless, bluetooth, modem, touchpad and the screen screen. I recently tried Ubuntu - to which I added kde-core and my favourite packages - and everything worked out of the box - even the Nvidia package worked. And it installed more quickly than the pre-configured version of XP that came with the machine :-) -- Best, Marc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
