Now that i'm finally done with school and will have time to learn what i need i'm planning on installing linux. I've messed around with it before but nothing more than here and there and i dont think i've had a distro installed for more than a month. I've tried suse and kubuntu. Last time i had one installed i got stuck installing a temp monitor program because i couldn't get it to display temps for cpu but it would show my hard drives.
What distro would be better in the long haul for a beginner to learn on (suse, kubuntu, other?)? I know 0 programming. Next question, 32bit or 64? Is 64bit linux developed enough or is it lacking in anyways? How is crunching affected, is there a points difference between bit versions like there is with windows?
thanks
