I was expecting this question in PLUG ;-) Let me explain. I need the distro to meet certain requirements wrt hardware support and applications. In that sense it should be "fairly leading edge". Once it meets those requirements, I don't want to mess up with it, as it will serve as a stable fallback environment for me. In other words, I do not need bleeding edge, but not something too conservative either! Mayuresh _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
