I have played around some with Debian (Woody) and Red Hat 7.2 and I think I like Red Hat better from a users point of view What I want to set up is a graphical Linux workstation as I am not interested in a server at the moment.I want to install Mozilla, OpenOffice, and VIM. I need to write some C (not C++) programs for a class I will be taking next semester. I also need to write some HTML, Java, Javascript, and PERL for another class I am taking. Some games would be nice to breakup the boredom of homework. Do I need to load both Gnome and KDE or just one of them? I think, I like KDE better than Gnome Whih is the better way to install Red Hat "Workstation" or "Custom" ? What is the difference between 7.2 and 7.3? Will "up2date" update my 7.2 to 7.3? After I register my copy of Red Hat 7.2 and do an 'up2date' command, does it just update what I installed or something more? I am a Windows 2000 user and I have a removable hard drive which I use for my data file. Can Red Hat read and write to this NTFS formated drive without screwing it up for Windows 2000? Thinking about buying a book: Red Hat Linux 7.2 Bible Unlimited Edition (With CD-ROM) by Christopher Negus Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
