Yep, that's me. I have been meaning to get more involved with Linux for some years but my early attempts at installing it went badly wrong and I lost interest.<br> I am now installing Linux on my spare machine, an Athlon 1Gb job running in an Asrock K7NF2 board with an AGP graphics card and it also has a built in network and sound card.
<br> I have tried Ubuntu but it will not load. I don't know enough about it to figure out why but the support forum mentions a bug that affects some machines. ie. me.<br><br>Now loading Debian 3.1. First I got the minimal CD and tried that but it will not detect the onboard network card so it can't download from the Internet. Again I don't know enough to fix it so now I am downloading the full Debian CD set and burning CD's from them. I am up to CD4 at the moment so I will try and install the Desktop and get something started.
