    Smile Looking for other interesting Linux distributions

    So far I have tried:

    Ubuntu - Great my primary operating system.
    SuSE 10.1 - Ok
    Fedora Core 5 - Not so good...
    Archlinux - A little complex but fairly good
    Gentoo - Great but some hardware didn't work
    Debian Etch - Network card was not detected

    So that's what I have used. I like linux distros that are simple but are customizable and usable.

    Tried SimplyMepis? I hade little succes with the curent but next realese looks interesting. (based on dapper)

    Mandriva or slack maybe?

    Tried any BSD versions?

    Elive and Dreamlinux - they are both base on debian etch, both have eye candy
    and because they use DSS they can be costumized easily.
