My Linux Distro will be based on openSUSE 11.3 and use GNOME 2.30 because it is more user friendly than KDE. It will also include an awesome theme. I know what needs fixing such as usability, stability. I also need some ideas for my software selection. They must be available in an .rpm format.

It is developed by Dillsoft (Who I own). It’s name is Dillsoft Ice One.

It is for general users (Like ubuntu, windows is).

Hello all. I’m a Windows user, but I’d like to try out a Linux distro. I’m looking for an OS that has a similar GUI to windows and similar applications, with high compatibility with Windows programs. I was thinking of Ubuntu. Do you guys have any better suggestions? Thanks.

If there were a Linux distro. that could run all Windows applications how hard would it hit Microsoft?

I’ve been using a lot of Linux distros lately, and the only one I really like is Mandriva? Is it a good Linux distro?

I have an old pc Pentium 4 with Intel motherboard. I need a linux distro to be installed for programming purposes and also to learn more about system programming. It should be good for programming C, C++ & Unix. Should I get a debian, rpm, gentoo / slackware based? kde desktop would be preferable. Thanks in advance!

My Linux distro is ‘Ubuntu’, when I double-click the .RPM files I get told by my system that it is not a valid archive. When I extract the .TAR.GZ file I get a bunch of files I cant do anything (productive) with. Please help.

I'm unsatisfied with Windows, so I've been looking for a good Linux distro. Mandriva seems good, with good hardware support. Has anyone trying Mandriva Linux 07, particulary the One LiveCD edition? And does it contain Atheros WiFi support like it said?

I have a dual boot partition disk, with Windows XP Professional and this Linux distro as the OSs. However, RedHat isn't opening (error message pops up) for some days. So, how do I remove this from my computer??? I don't really want it anymore. Detailed instructions please.
