Linux

I got Kubuntu installed in an attempt to program some Bluetooth apps in Linux. I hate it. One of the problems is a linux issue. Apparently, they can provide enough of a driver for my wireless card that it knows it is there, but not enough to actually use the card. After finding a method of using the windows driver, I finally got the card working, but now the KNetworkManager isn't working properly. With this and other issues I have with the OS, I am going to switch to Debian, the Linux OS I used to have on my computer, and the Linux lab used to use. It may still have wireless issues, but I'm pretty sure it will solve the other issues.
