As I said before I tried several distro's
and different versions of distro's since about '95. It was always noe
or two of three things that wouldn't work or wouldn't work right;
video, sound, or internet. Finally about two years ago I came across
Ubuntu and everything worked. When I need to do command line, I copy
from some document telling which command to use and paste into
terminal. Works great. Also it's a slow, but helpful way to learn
commands.
