<div class="moz-cite-prefix">So, what's your question then? Seems
you've already made all the decisions that need be made. <br>
<br>
Seems you want stability, stability, stability. Use Xubuntu 12.04.
<br>
<br>
Done.<br>
<br>
When you ask "what version", are you asking what flavor of
Xubuntu? There are many distros, such as Voyager, for example,
that are based on Xubuntu 12.04?<br>

<pre wrap="">Stick with 12.04 (or 12.10). I've had bluetooth issues with 13.04 and
now bluetooth, sound, and power manager issues with 13.10. Basically,
hardware support was more robust with the year 12 versions.

<pre wrap="">Hi again,
Thanks for your replies (3 so far) but I'm afraid the replies I am
reading are not helping me so allow me to re-explain.
1- The one who brought his two laptops to me is not a friend, he is a
neighbour. He saw my posting on our neighbourhood facebook group about
Linux and he was interested to give it a try :)
2- He does not want a dual-boot system, he wants to get rid of Windows :)
3- I am not asking about Mint, Bodhi, etc. I am asking about what
version of Xubuntu that Xubuntu Community recommend :)
4- Mentioning other Distros names was just to explain the options I was
thinking about. Ignore that if it caused any confusion.
So, in very short sentence:
I need to know what version of Xubuntu do you recommend? 12.04 or 13.10?
And, as for using an outdated system, I am afraid I shall never do such
mistake specially with a Windows Users who will start using Linux for
the first time :) the systems are being updated and have EOL for a good
reason :)
Many thanks :)
