Best Linux OS?

Best in terms of what ease of use or flexibility. For ease of use it's Linux Mint for flexibility it would probably be Gentoo.

 

Best Linux OS

Hello folks,
i too am trying my hands at Linux, i already have Ubuntu 11.4 and tried installing within windows, which went smooth.
But what i am concerned is the drivers i'll be needing for my graphic card Nvidia Geforce , the Nvidia CD doesn't has one, OK no need, i will play games in XP. But i have Modem USB which is not recognized in Ubuntu. Bumer

I was thinking i could use the modem for safe browsing, i havn't tried other tools , but it feels cumbersome and i dont like the way how the mouse moves when i scroll. No big deal.

Their must be something people still like Linux may be 1.5 out of 10 person's do . But their has to be something in it.

I want to get the feel of Linux for once : but their are so many flavour and i dont know which to download. So i am asking any Linux users , which flavour is the most stable and versatile in feel and stability.
The one that will recognise the USB drives and connecting to net is a breeze.

Any suggestion greatly welcomed.

 

Linux Mint

 

Any other flavours:

 

Ubuntu is hard to beat. I have it on all my pc's with dual boot.
The Nvidia graphics card will be recognized and you will be offered the install of nvidia linux drivers, if not goto nvidias site and download. I never have any issues with drivers in Ubuntu.

or try h*tp://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=linuxgamers

 

I like Kubuntu 11.4

Try PCLINUXOS

 

I had trobbles with Kubuntu 10.4...now i installed Debian who 's looking cool..BTW here Ubuntu detects needed drivers automatically

 

The best is JoliOS. Give it a try. You can download it to work alongside windows or as a standalone. Try the windows version. Jolios is cloud based. It is also now called Jolicloud instead of JoliOS bit its the same thing. A new version will be out this fall! Beats all the rest, I know I tried them!

 

Now a days in market a lot of Linux Operating system are present like Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, Debian, LInuxMint, PCLinuxOS, Dream Linux and many more. You can choose among them and use the one which looks very much familiar for you... If you talk about the best operating system then it will vary from person to person as everyone have different requirements.

 

I can't even count how many people argue with about this, yet they insist there is an operating system, which they like most than others … and that's it. I think its all depends on personal choice AND nothing else...

 

Wow like Android and Windows Home Server all rolled into one

 

Of all the Linux OS i tried, Dam small linux, Mint and ububtu : Ubuntu 11.04 looks very promising and user friendly compared to other OS's i.e., only in linux flavour.
XP still rules no doubt.
Has anyone tried Google OS.

for my i like cent os most

 

did you tried cent os before ?? i think its great

 

Try Debian 6.03

 

I like Unbuntu a lot and that's what I'm using, but I installed Unbuntu 11.10 on a laptop and the wireless drivers would not work. So I d/l Fedora 15 and it picked up the wireless driver out of the box. I kept researching and found the fix for Ubuntu and my wireless drivers, but I was very impressed with Fedora working out of box.

 

for me Redhat is the best linux ever created.

 

Fedora without question.Just wait for F-16 in 7 days (on 2011-11-08).
