Ok i have been using win98 since it first came out and well i am really sick of the blue screen of death.So a friend gave me one of these knoppix cd's and i am not a genuis but muddling threw it with no l;inux knowledge at all i found it pretty easy touse.So now i am a changed man and instead of upgrding to XP :twisted: and giving the devil his due i am goin to linux,but not sure what linux i need to do what i want.so here is what i got and what i want to do maybe some suggestions:
computer is a:ICECUBE PC 2.4 P4,samsung 120gb hdd,samsung 52x cd-r,Visionplus 1020a dvb pci card,1gb ddr ram,I have no floppy drive either
what i want todo:,Watch my tv thru my dvb card,play my mame games,ftp my xbox which uses gentoo linux i believe,and surf the net(by the way do any ISP'S support the use of linux or would it be better to just go with cable or dsl?
What ever assistence you can give would be greatly appreciated
