@TheBrownSys the mainstream distro's of linux

[TheBrownSys]

@sneekylinux No really...Alternative to what?

One example?

Thanks

FreeNAS is bad compared to OpenMediaVault. While ZFS may sound nice, it is evil due to licensing. OMV is more advanced, linux powered, has support for all linux filesystems and very easy to set up. OMV is actually rewrite of Freenas.

@MyNameIsBucket i didn't say that did i but there is always a way.

@sneekylinux Really? You haven't heard of any wireless support issues in Linux? I want to live on your planet.

[sneekylinux]

@MyNameIsBucket to be honest,never had that prob myself, but most wireless drivers are supported unless u are very unlucky, let me know how yo get on..

[MyNameIsBucket]

@sneekylinux Not that it would matter, but I installed it. I had a wired connection and it couldn't find drivers for the wireless. It seems to be an Atheros card, but multiple modules were unsuccessful.

@poojkhgf i di do a long time ago, but maybe it's time for a new one

[sneekylinux]

@MyNameIsBucket did you install it or just try the live cd??

I have an Athlon laptop from around 2004. I installed the latest Ubuntu and it doesn't have support for my wireless. Which distro would be best? I was thinking Puppy but I can't decide between Racy, Wary or vanilla.
