Well its official, I'm now only using linux. My spare computer that I was running linux on went down (think theres a problem with the memory controller) so I was using knoppix on my laptop. After a bit I decided that it was silly to be using linux all the time without using the hard-drive so I've now got Fedora 4 running on my laptop.
Why did I do it? Well when somethings wrong in linux, linux tells you whats wrong. It doesn't give you some general error message and let you try messing about with everything 10x before it changes a setting itself that fixes the problem. You run a few commands, see what the problem is then run another command to fix it. Ok, you need to know those commands but hey, I like it.
Just now I've just built my wifi cards driver and am using it nicely (actually its not mine, its my flatmates...but i've ordered the same one and its due on monday as my built in one is a broadcom chipset which will run in linux using ndiswrapper but my distro doesn't have that intalled by default and I didn't want to rebuild my kernel just to support that and it won't work in monitor mode).
