I am familiar with the document on where files should be placed. I don't know from first had how Debian is, but they seem to be the most compliant distribution arround. I know they try to follow the standard on file placement. They also work hard to reduce the amount of unneeded internet traffic downloading a lot of options you won't use anyway. I also like the idea of choosing what goes into your system. I have yet to take the time to try it out though. I did try Corel linux which is based off Debian. Though I liked the package concept, Corel made too many insane dependancies. For instance in Corel you can't have X without having a lot of crap. For instance it forces you to have NFS, Samba, and another file sharing mechanism. That is insane, I don't want to share files just cause I want a GUI. That is not a good connection. -- Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk at 1tree.net ------------------ Seek simplicity -- and distrust it. Alfred North Whitehead
