    Smile need help

    This is my first time installing Linux and i can't decide which one of these distros to download, Fedora Core 6 or Ubuntu. I need to know which one is easier to install. Also, for drivers, what things need drivers so i can check if they are supported.

    thx in advance.

    Hi a123 and welcome!

    FC6 is very cutting edge for a first distro. I would go with Ubuntu. What hardware do you have? How are you connected to the Internet? The more info on your hardware the better.
