Hello Jason,

Here are the answers to your poll.

1       I was using Mandrake 7.2, I believe, and then mandrake 8.0.

2       I am now using Debian with kernel 2.8 using Libranet to install it. I do not 
remember which version of Debian the libranet package installed for me. I 
have upgraded from open office 1.0 to open office 1.1 since I switched to 
Debian.

3       I switched to Debian because even in Mandrake 8.0 my printing was not 
reliable. Ever since I switched to Debian, my printer works perfectly. I also 
really like open office 1.1 for many applications.

4 I use KDE window manager in Xwindow and I use the Vi editor in text mode for 
things which do not need to be in a fancy word processor or spread sheet.

Once I get to feel more confident in linux, I might try out a few other 
distributions. But for now I am completely satisfied with Debian.

I use the application KMail in KDE. When I get more confident in linux I might 
try Mutt some time. But my brother Mel says that I have a long way to go 
before I should try Mutt.


I hope this information is useful.

Regards,

Michael Walters
