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,

I switched to Linux Mint, Mate Edition now and it works for me
as a desktop interface. You can give it a try and see if
you like it.

I have problem with the Cinnamon edition.

I'll also throw in a vote for linux Mint.  One thing you might want to
try before settling on a distro is to run linux as a guest os in a VM.
That way, you can try a couple and settle on the one you like.  There
are some downsides to doing so:

The upside is you can do some very clever things with snapshots, and
with a 1TB drive, you shouldn't have any disk-space issues.

Regards,

Mark
