<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">Hi all!</SPAN></div>
<div> </div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">I'm planning to put a second HDD into my notebook for using grass as it seems to be</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">much more up-to-date and better on Linux than under Cygwin (which is good for many things, really, and good to have, but I better use Linux for production)</SPAN></div>
<div> </div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">My question is, which Linux distribution to choose?</SPAN></div>
<div> </div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">I have Debian but that is versions back for stability (i do understand) and</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">if I switch to the unstable tree in sources.list it starts to create strange links</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">(if I install a library, it uninstalls another and changes version and I loose an important package,</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">etc)</SPAN></div>
<div> </div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">What do you use for compiling/development, for example? Which one is the best.</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">My main target application is GRASS, so this is the main point.</SPAN></div>
<div> </div>
<div><SPAN DEFANGED_STYLE="font-size:10pt;">thanks</SPAN></div>
