Mine was Knoppix because back in the day Libraries used to let you borrow all sorts of computer software and games and that's what they had and I was stuck on dialup lol

Fedora Core 6. Package manager kept failing so I couldn't update or install software. So I tried Ubuntu 7.04. That one worked. Had a bunch of animations and stuff that made windows xp look like a child's toy. Been using Linux as my daily ever since
