I use Ubuntu 10.4 and soon will be 10.10 next month. :D
 
I still have to use windows 7 on my laptop because Video Relay Serivce support only windows xp or 7. grrr!! I wish VRS works on LINUX!!!!
 
I've used Ubuntu and Debian. Ubuntu is prettier and I like the Software Center for browsing apps, but I've only just started using Debian and it might grow on me over time.

I'm thinking of trying more Linux distros too. I run them in VMs which is a bit easier than trying to partition my hard drive every time I want to try out a new OS. Any recommendations?

Dont worry, I've contacted with ZVRS myself and sent them strong messaged Email about Z4 for Linux. I willl wait and see what they say.

I've ran Windows base Z4 on Wines, It loads but won't run. I tried VMWare for Linux and installed Windows inside of it. Installed Z4 in it and ran it. It works but LAGGY at best!!

That's what pissing me off!!

Skype provided VideoChat for Linux and works great. I have Driverless Logitech Webcam and it works great (it's Logitech Vision Pro for Mac)

Webcam work fine on my Dell Mini under Ubuntu.

I started off with Ubuntu and dabbled with Debian, but recently on a whim I backed up my /home and installed Mint Debian. It's working fine so far and I like the user interface better too. I also made sure to install /home on its own partition so I can distro hop without losing data :D

I was thinking of trying one of the more advanced-user distros sometime, like maybe Fedora or Arch. Has anyone got experience with them?

Arch Linux I've use it and it's easy to install. It's not exactly advanced. Fedora Core is more advanced but easy to install and use. It have more advanced options than Arch Linux.

I liken Arch Linux as Mepis Linux (It is pretty much the same way)

I tried installing ArchBang on an old computer the other day, but it didn't work for some reason - it kept messing up when I tried to create a user account, so I was only able to log in as root. I read somewhere that it was a bug in that particular version of the CD. It's probably fixed by now I guess.

The main difficulty is that Arch isn't a LiveCD, so you need another computer to look up instructions on the internet while you install. Right now I don't have access to that.

Right now I'm running Linux Mint Debian Edition, and it's my favorite OS so far, so I probably won't distro hop for a while though.
