I think it is Red Hat, because I know many servers which use this OS and they have been up and running for more than a year without freeze-ups or crashes.
Most luck I've had is with Fedora Core 2. In all the years I've messed with Linux, I haven't found anything that runs 1/2 as stable as anything Microsoft offers.
I realize that with open source you are going to need to do some tweaking to get everything right--but I'm really appalled at how poor Linux runs off of a default install. Most every distribution I've tested didn't run stable enough or long enough for me to even begin to get a handle on what the OS was all about....until I tried Fedora Core 2.
The funny thing is that I tried FC 3 when it came out---and it didn't end up working out as well as FC2. Linux to me is laughable...I would love to try Solaris for I386 though.
--my choice isn't on there. Red Hat is now a pay-for product and Fedora Core is the free version of Red Hat...they ARE different and each of the cores are different as well.
For example, when FC 3 came out, I decided to try that (after I had FC 2 running pretty good). FC 3 wouldn't accept the Nvidia video driver and kernel module--and I'm not experienced enough to make that work, where FC 2 worked.
FC3 didn't want to load the new version of X Org 6.8 server....
:huh: i've never even played with linux except for the gui on my friends pc. i dont know kibbles or bits when it comes to linux commands. :P so which should i sink my fingers into first? :blink:
