Hi: I am an electronic hardware/software engineer and am currently running Linux. I started with Redhat and eventually switched to Slakware. Although I like both distributions, I prefer Slakware because it is easier to understand. However, I do not like the complete lack of support from Slakware.
I am thinking of changint to either SuSe or Debian soon and wanted to get your input. The thing I have the biggest problem with currently is networking, specifically connecting to DSL with my Linux box. I am totally frusterated. If I purchase Debian would I get some help with this? Earthlink acts like Linux users have some sort os disease and won't even talk about it. Also, if I purchase a CD distribution, I understand that I would need both the source and the binary sets for a total of 6 cd's in order to have everything. I just want to confirm this.
