Welcome to the new Linux Foundation Forum!
Please recommend a distribution for my mediacenter
I'm trying to build a Media Center and I wanted to put Linux on it. Ideally, I'm looking for something that can be easily controlled with a remote control. Also: Linux isn't really mandatory. If you have a suggestion that is better than Linux, I'd love to hear it (and why it's better).

I tried element 1.0 after multimedia issues with 9.10 made me stop using it and was impressed with its ease of use; I believe the current version is 1.2 I have since moved on -- but i do not have a Home Theatre! This is what I would use first, if I did.
(HINT: go to the Trash bin -- there is more there than you think)
Geez, just looked at the site again, it says it's now an addon to Kubuntu. Before it was it's own distro...I wonder what has changed....Geez, another entry to the to-do list. LOL.
Edit: It's still an iso based on Kubuntu 8.10, I've got to read farther.
How's progress?
