Hey buddy: knoppix installed (http://knoppix.org/) gives you a functioning 
Debian system,;so  too does Mepis (http://www.mepis.org/book/view/1). If you 
are a newbie to linux I would suggest you get Mepis.... Mepis even detected a 
USB drive after I plugged it in and my camera downloads pictures and the PDA 
and sound work.
