No GUI

bstemp

Gaming in Linux

cypcom
Yes yet another newbie. Today was the last straw with windows so I've decided to go linux. I know this may be subject to a little bias but what are your suggestions on what version is best for gaming without being too complicated (right now I have a few people telling be about Debian and a couple for Mandrake).

Problems INtsalling Madrake 9.0/Suse Linux

stpopoola
Hi everyone, I am quite new to Linux and have been looking for a distro that would work on my PC. Of all my attempts, the only one that has worked is Redhat 9. 2 which a friend of mine sent to me. However I would have preffered Mandrake/Suse Linux.
