Now I'm using Fedora 1 !
I use Debian for servers because it is stable. Yes, not all the
packages are the latest. But it works, and works quite well.
Fedora is a beta-distro; it's intended to be RedHat's bleeding edge
testing ground. IMHO, not suitable for servers. Use RedHat if you want
a stable distro version.

For text UI, debian and ubuntu are virtually the same.
I'd go with debian as most of the really nice stuff in ubuntu is around
the GUI.

I'm thinking to install Debian or Ubuntu server but what do you
suggest me ?
Up to you. Ubuntu is a child OS built on top of Debian.
From the console they are almost identical.
I find the delay in package updates annoying in Ubuntu, particularly
since they cop it from their own release freezes, and from the Debian
freezes once a year. But I'm an unashamed neophyte.
