I have been working with Red Hat/Fedora since Red Hat 7.3. I don't know why it didn't work with a broadband connection a few days back. Anyways, it's working now and perfectly well. I'll nonetheless try other distros - opensuse, Mint, Ubuntu, Vector, Debian, ...you name it. I have discovered, however, one hell of a lot of good distro - it's called Slitaz Linux. It is so fast that when install it on my 1mb usb stick it installs under a 100MB or so and runs extremely blindingly fast!!! on my 245MB RAM 1.7GHz Celeron machine which then looks like a 2.66GHz Core Due 2 with 2GB! Slitaz doesn't currently have Scribus but it's an extremely good distro for netbook usage for example. Too fast. There IS an Scribus folder in their repository but I think it's other stuff instead of the main Scribus application. It's so fast that one really feels like start working on the OS itself! :) Sorry for this off-topic post. But couldn't resist telling you my experience. Best regards, -Asif
