If not Debian Sid, then SuSE. Have heard good reports from die-hard Slackware users... but going there is entirely up to you :-) I'd say, if you can handle (a question of bandwidth) the dist-upgrades of Debian Sid (a.k.a unstable) then go with that. Atleast try it on one of the heads of ravana ;-) I have been a full-time user of Debian Sid for over two years now and don't find any reason to look anywhere else. (Note that this is entirely an issue of my preferences.) I have also been using and maintaining a couple of SuSE systems. Started with 7.3 and am currently at 9.1. There is a good reason that SuSE is the preferred distribution for a large section of users. If you like tight integration, seamless updates, graphical setup and config tools (SuSE's YaST2 is the best I have seen in that category) and a wide variety of packaged software, then SuSE is worth it. I have had very few sour experiances with SuSE. Hope this helps. BTW: What does ravana look like these days in terms of head-occupancy? And when did you start hacking on bluetooth!? -- Vipul Mathur vipul[at]linux-delhi.org http://www.vipulmathur.org/ _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
