My first distro was Red Hat 5, I guess... then was Conectiva 3, 4 and 5. I even had Mandrake once. Now I am using Slackware (for almost 3 yrs), witch was the best distro Ive found. Slack 8 is killer. But Im afraid thet it is not the best way to begin. My boss came to me once and said "I want linux. Gimme the best distro you know.". So I installed to him Slack 7.2, and he hated the "user-unfrendly" interface and called a friend of his to install conectiva 6 (this was about a month ago). I think he is happy now. But dont you make the same mistake that I did... There is some distros made for people who know how to use a computer and know how to learn new things without smashing their hands on something fragile, just because they are dumb. Let them learn the basic first, then the real thing...
Up The Irons!
Yes... it is gratis... but, if you detect a bug, and know how to fix it, you can't. If you don't like the software the way it is woking (or not), you cannot change it. That's why it in NOT free software. You should understand the diference.

In one hand I have a Dell OptiPlex at work and it does not make any too loud noiss... In the other hand the Dell PowerEdge 2400 Server has 7 fans total. It hurts my ears... You should all work 8h on one of those, just to have the pleasure of shutting it down...
They could use it with the single-atom-transistor and the single-slectron-memory and produce a single-IC-motherboard...
How would we see fellowshipoftherings_fs.l.mov before someone encode it to mpeg?
patch-2.5.1-pre1.gz is what you're looking for. both patches are identical and fix the name things (including the "8139too oops").
Ive just booted 2.5.0 on 2 boxes, and 2.4.15pre8 on the production server... hehehe
I use ext3 or reiserfs and no problems so far...
