If you're not averse to trying smaller (less known) distros, try this one: http://www.pclinuxos.com/news.php
Caveat: I haven't tried it yet myself. I heard about it on free software magazine though, and I've seen the project website. the reason why I recommend it for the desktop is its documentation is very non-threatening and user-friendly, especially for linux newbies. ----- Original Message ---- From: Harish Pillay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Technical Discussion List <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, February 13, 2007 4:38:00 PM Subject: Re: [plug] Best Linux distro for Desktop (Workstation) > How about the compatibility with PLDT DSL connection.

Having said that, and if you want to plug the machine directly to the DSL modem, then all the distributions above will work. Use the pppoe that comes with them.
