Hi zeropoint!

You can download this file:
< http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub....2.0.iso >
This is the current "standard" ISO. You'll have a simply window manager - no KDE or Gnome, but Fluxbox - and a bunch of small, but valuable apps. The command line is allways there, if you want it.

Ahoj!

Hi!

Well, my experience in DSL is not soooo good, i'm using it occasionally. (Don't have much time when there's a lusty 10 months "old" baby at home

)
Feel free to ask anything, someone will surely answer you, 'cos the community is really GREAT! Also, take some time to read the manuals - trust me, it will be helpful!

Have fun!

I know I wasnt the one who asked the question originally. But thanks for the posting anyway. I too am completely new to linux and trying to branch out. So I thought the DSL version would be nice to experiment with on my old laptop. But all those files. And nothing labeled so I could understand it. Need to brush up on my geek knowledge database. I've been away from the nuts and bolts aspects of computers way too long I think. :)
