<font size=3><x-tab> </x-tab>Hi.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>i've been
lurking on the list for about a week and a half now<br>
and finally decided to say "hi" and thanks for actually having
a user group,<br>
and 2 maybe ask a question. #8~)<br>
<br>
i've lived in hawaii for almost 2 years now, and i thinkit's great
that<br>
there is a users group here. especially since there doesn't seem to be
much<br>
else goin on in the way of linux around the island. course, i don't
get <br>
out much either, so don't smack me for that one...<br>
<br>
ok, my question is. i have a laptop (p2 233, 32mb of ram, keyboard,
screen, etc...)<br>
that is currently running slackware(4.0b3) and due to some
malicious <br>
user errors (i was playing again) i need to reinstall and was wondering
<br>
which distributions were supposed to "install easiest" on
laptops?<br>
Slackware seems to have some serious issues with my ethernet<br>
card (linksys etherfast 10/100), and that is probably going<br>
to be my major deciding factor, is how well it detects hardware.<br>
<br>
any suggestions?<br>
thanks<br>
<br>
