Heh. This is yet another reason why I love Linux. If something doesn't
work for you, switch to another project that does! :-)
What is really funny is that I am almost a complete 180 from you. The
last time I tried Fedora was when 9 was released. I spent a weekend
trying to get things to work. When I tried to update pidgin I ran into
dependency hell and in my feeble attempts to get it working again, I
broke X. Then I just installed Debian. :-)
I am sorry to hear you had problems with Debian, but I am glad you found
a distro that works for you!
Have fun!
