What is the your favorite version of Linux or Ubuntu?
Playing around with Linux Ubuntu on an old laptop and trying to decide which one to use.
Linux is known to run great on older hardware.
There are tons of them. My biggest headache will be drivers for my wireless NIC and printer.
I've got Ubuntu 10.04 at the moment. I like it a lot, though one problem that seems to be persistent with Linux, or at least Ubuntu, is the sound. It's improved a lot since the 8.x series but I sometimes have issues with it. My latest project is to get ekiga working, which is a skype voip alternative. I generally avoid the absolute latest release to help ensure I don't get any problems that aren't patched yet.
I've got Fedora Core on another machine but rarely use it. Either is fine, but Ubuntu seems to take care of itself a bit better.
