#4 Re: The Best Linux Distribution For Users New To Linux Posted by empty (70.176.xx.xx) on Mon 13 Jun 2005 at 10:03 IMO Debian is one of the very best. It is well documented, the sarge installer totally kicks ass, and apt causes few if any problems when installing software. The biggest problems newbies have I think is basic commands. Once a user understands the 10-20 basic commands they will need(or at least knows their names so they can 'man' them) things become much easier for them to understand. I'm unaware of any *really* good tutorial for users new to Linux, but if anyone reading this knows one I would love the URL. You've forgotten something here that I can't understand though- help available online. #debian on irc.freenode.net is easily one of the busiest and most helpful chat rooms for any distro I have run across. If a newbie can't find an answer in Google and there, it's probably not a newbie question :)
