Spec me a new distro...

Once Arch has been installed you never have to worry again, it's awesome really.

I have tried LMDE and it's very good, in beta still and only 32bit available so far.
 
Well after several days (or a few hours) hard work this is where i'm at:

Lots of troubleshooting still to go, in fact i'm tempted to format and do it all again but just having a usable GUI desktop is a good enough milestone for me. That's enough for today however, thanks! :)
 
Well my second attempt, from scratch, seems to have been far more successful. Using nouveau i think this might just be a keeper, even if i did make a few mistakes in the installation that might come back to haunt me.

Now i just need to decide if i want to start X on boot or not and i can start customizing it more :)
