Hi,
[picking up this orphan posting ;)]
choice of Linux distribution is a quite subjective thing.
Myself, I'm tending towards Debian-based distributions.
If your email handle is true to the core, then perhaps Debian stable
would be a good idea, otherwise choose an "easier on the user" variant
like SimplyMEPIS, MINT or even Ubuntu.
Reason being that with Debian installation of all kernel-related
packages (build-essential, libncurses5-dev etc.) is a simple matter
(which OTOH I'm sure is the case with many non-Debian distros as well).
Or if you want to be right at the forefront of Linux development,
then perhaps choosing a nicely integrated source-based distribution
such as Arch is a good idea to always have fresh packages.
But generally choice of distribution shouldn't really matter (in case
one is using a capable desktop distribution, of course).
HTH,
Andreas Mohr
