Fedora Core, Mandriva/Mandrake, and Suse all have 64bit versions of their
respective distros of Linux.
I have used all of them on my AMD64 3200+ box.
Suse is definitely best of the bunch, followed by Mandrake.
I found each release of Fedora Core (ie every official release I've tried
so far) has had serious-enough issues to cause me to reasonably quickly
trash it in favour of some other distro.
I found that currently Fedora Core 4 has USB usage issues. My scanner,
which worked perfectly fine using the same hardware configuration and
Mandrake 10.0, would not work using Fedora Core 4.
I installed Suse 9.3 (KDE 3.4) as my desktop box and everything just works
perfectly. :o)
But... for the life of me I *cannot* find out how to change the
KDE/Konquorer setting from one-click selects and launches, to one-click
selects and two-clicks launches.
Can anybody help with this? How do I change this setting in KDE 3.4?
