| Now a question that strikes us all into argument. What is the best Linux Distribution? well here i am going to compare 2 linux distributions that i have found to be great. redhat 9, and Suse linux 9, i will rate out of ten and give good points as well as bad. RedHat 9 GOOD
Excellent support for those who are new to linux
Even better to those who are experts
Good media support
Contains all the packages that u need to have a great expeirence
Fast compiling BAD Falls into dependancy hell very often
Slow rpm installs
Not alot of applications being ported to redhat at this day and age
Mp3 plugin isnt availible
Alot of plugins dont come with redhat
Overall 8/10
I use this distro for alot of work, whether is be gaming or school work, i highly reccomend this to beginners. Suse 9 GOOD Hardly ever fall into dependancy hell
Tons of plugins already included
Tons of Games
Great 3d support
Tons of apps for multimedia
Very newbie friendly BAD Very sluggish on large installs
Poor compiling
Alot of times you will find yourself inserting a bunch of discs to install an rpm
5 discs
Still has small holes, even as a final product Overall 7/10 This is more of a newbie distro, not really for experts, although it has alot of packages, its just doesnt make the cut for me. Conclusion Redhat 9, is the best, i reccomend this to anyone of any linux skill type -Archlyric
