Hey,
I couple of weeks ago, i tried ubuntu on my Dell Inspiron E1405/640M with the intel GMA 950 graphics processor. I kind of liked ubuntu but it had some real problems with my hardware. i couldn't get the native resolution of my screen (1280x800), only 1024x768, and even after i got it fixed (hard work
) i guess it still couldn't get the best out of my graphics card because a lack of drivers.
I want a minimal configuration distro for complete beginners in the linux world that will recognize all my hardware automatically without any work. is there such thing or it's a dream?
General use:
# Programming
# Surfing web
# Playing music ALOT (very important some advanced sound and multimedia features)
# Email
These are the main uses.
what do you recommand me to do? Stick with ubuntu or try something else?
Thanks.
