I tried Ubuntu for about five months or so before ditching it for PCLinuxOS...my main gripe with Ubuntu was I had to spend a couple of hours to get my soundcard to work by turning on oss emulation and all that jazz...now I know what to do but initially it took a little while :-) ....no framebuffer console out of the box nor gcc out of the box....

With pcLinuxOS everything just worked....there was sound coming from my old sound card...gcc was there without me having to install it....and a nice framebuffer waiting for me on ctrl-alt-f*...
