Debian, Suse or JDS

xiaobailong

既然有这么多选择， 偶要提条件了：

偶要一个 ----  安装简单，界面漂亮，功能齐全，使用方便的 ---- linux distribution.  

最好能够完全取代winxp，偶就不用在三个操作系统中间boot来boot去了。

I'd prefer SUSE, especially 'cause we are in DE.  Here:
1. You get a huge user group to discuss with.
2.  As far as i know, Suse has the most completed database for hardware support.
3. Also the best document and help system, easy for newbies and also for advanced users.

But globally, many tech. software providers would only support Redhat, also in most companies they use Redhat, if Linux.
other distro may be mainly stay for Linux fans.

Pls. feel free to correct me, if i am wrong.

Thanks Gaga and Bebe for sharing your experiences and opinions.

1. Suse:  Yes, I'm considering Suse because it comes originally from Germany, although it now belongs to an american company.
2. RedHat:  It is said that RedHat is far away from other linux distributions. Compatibility is poor. So I won't consider RedHat.
3. Debian:  Debian's advantage is that it belongs to GNU, which is a unprofitable organisation and Debian will not be influenced by any commercial company.
4. JDS:  It has added many useful applications together with it's linux-based system. Another advantage for me is that I use the same GUI environment on Solaris.

As to Mandrake, Slackware and Gentoo, I have no idea on them at all...... They are for linux Gurus.

OK.  I know many advantages of each linux distributions now. Can somebody tell me several disadvantages of some linux distributions?

实在想要比较那些distro可以去这里看看 http://distrowatch.com/
Ubuntu窜到NO.1了，我估计是和gnome2.10的发布有关，就个人感觉来说Ubuntu的启动速度实在是不敢恭维

这个网站很棒啊！太有价值了。

哈哈，讲一件得意和失意的事情。在这个网站上逛的时候，顺着一个联接转到了我放solaris screenshots的那个网站，显示一些solaris的图片： http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/Solaris 其中第二张图片好像是偶贴的，可惜不知道为甚么，图片没有联接到偶的账号上去。。。。

I agree with U for the pity...
So it is better for U to setup a formal Homepage and write down your Blogs.
Later U are supposed to  be invited to such a VIP group to evaluate or develop...


your enthusiasm deserve premium..

Thanks for the encouragement. I have got an account in blogger.com and wil probably begin my blogging someday...

But what do you means "to  be invited to such a VIP group to evaluate or develop...".  VIP group under bloggers, or some internet magazine, or  organisations?

Ubuntu和gnome什么关系阿？

偶决定先试试Debian，如果不满意再换别的。我看Debian里面的package很全，担心的是界面不太好看，还有就是稳定性问题，现在都还只是测试版本。不管了，先试试再说吧。

好奇怪，Debian最后一个稳定版本是2002年发布的，今年初发布的还是一个update的测试版, 这中间的三年是怎么回事？

目前gnome官方网站发布新版本时用的live cd是基于ubuntu的
