I don't run unix for my desktop anymore, but my friends have been raving about gentoo. I needed to install a linux variant for a new fileserver, downloaded and burnt the gentoo live CD but my machine wouldn't boot it. After making coasters out of two blanks I found some old redhat9 disks and installed that. So, YMMV, but my friends who bothered to fuck with it say it's great. Good luck!

As far as wysiwyg editors in linux, the only one I can think of is mozilla's composer. I think CuteHTML may have a linux port, but I couldn't guarantee it.TrafficHolder.com - Buy/Sell Adult Traffic

Heres a hint... over 90% of surfers use IE on a Windows platform.
As a webmaster why the hell would you use anything else for website development?
yes, I know you can make all your sites 100% compatible with every browser becasue you adhere to the HTML/XML/ECT. standards....

Hi ..
We run Mandrake on some of our computers. Works pretty fine.
Try Quanta as HTML editor. It's not Wysiwyg, but I thinks is the best editor on linux OS.Comment

I've run Gentoo in the past, its not really for the faint of heart..
Basically to achieve its 'minimalism' you actually build the base system up yourself using specific commands through their package management software. This means that you end up having to manually install every little thing you require (although, obviously dependency checking helps here).
Last time I used it (1.4rc3?) the hardware configuration was all left up to the end user too, so it was basically a case of manually compiling the right kernel modules and configuring Xfree86. To be honest, if you value your time at all, you should probably just get a copy of Fedora and let it take care of all that stuff for you.Comment
