Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Yes. Pretty good.
You can get a free .ISO at [link|http://www.mepis.org/node/1462|http://www.mepis.org/node/1462] Mepis.com is the main site, Mepis.org has FAQs, etc.

On the package management, it seems fine. The only gotcha I had was trying to update Java. Some manual tweaking is necessary in my copy (see [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=186764|#186764] and Greg's explanation. I still haven't tried that fix yet.)

Also, I haven't done the minor hacking required to get hibernating to work on my T41. I don't know if it works out of the box with a later version.

imric is a big Mepis fan too, I'm sure he could offer some more pointers if you need them. I'm still a noob with it.

Luck!

Cheers,
Scott.
New Yah - I LOVE the hardware detection...
And the installer is dead easy too.

It's pretty much Debian, otherwise... That's the best part!

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.
