   Henry,Mark, All Linux gurus.
   I bought a new ASUS 15 inch 4 processor note book and the
   wireless does not work under 10.1.

   I saved the original sys 7 350 Gig HD and put a 1T HD in for
   Ubuntu 10.1
   The wireless worked under sys7

   I don't like the GUI user interface on 11.04 or later.
   Too simplistic,

   What do I put in all these boxes?

   Paul, also Linux Mint 13 is Ubuntu based with a much more user friendly
   interface and more drivers installed during the initial install. My wife
   couldnt use Ubuntu but adapted OK to Mint as did Chase our 11 year old.

   Not sure which boxes you are referring to, there are a lot during the
   install. Call me and I can see if I can help you sort it out. I just
   installed Fedora 17 on Chases laptop yesterday to make him learn more
   about different systems. Its amazing what a child is willing to learn to
   get to his favorite games!

Hello Paul

Have you looked at using the kde interface? www.kubuntu.org is ubuntu
with the kde interface. It is pretty stable I have run it on my primary
workstation for the last couple of years with few complaints. It is
pretty much plug and play.

here are some screenshots
