If you want a clean smooth ready-for-the-desktop, system then try Ubuntu, Fedora, Mandriva or even Lineo (formerly lindows). I consider Knoppix to be a developer-oriented system. It's really good, but it need tweaking for any specific purpose (and it's designed to allow that tweaking). Don't complain about a ferari because it's not a SUV, or an SUV because it can't do 0-60 in 4.0. reveiw things in the context for which they were designed.

I've been using Linux exclusively for the last 5 years and hoping that Linux would make it for the last 10 years. But, no way, the development model just doesn't work. I'm getting fed up too. I'll check the next release of Debian and if I face the same damned problems, I'll switched to Mac OS X. Then, there will be no coming back. Linux's development for developers will be able to proceed without ranters like me in a computer world where all the standards will be set for proprietary software.
