I have been running linux for a while now.

Have you been to www.distrowatch.com?

as for software for burning and such, when you go into your system updater, where you can choose which packages to install... make sure you have it listed for all packages and not just registered packages. You miss so much by leaving it default. Items missed are the codecs to play DVD movies on linux as well as a DVDRipper, which is really the program name.

My preferred distro is hovering between Ubuntu and Pioneer... but Pioneer is really Ubuntu with KDE that is stable.
