Just a quick post to get an idea of what Linux Distro People are using on their home file server that serves their files to their XBMC Machine
I am thinking of testing out linux for a bit and after trying several distro's i am trying to decide between linux mint, Lubuntu or Linux Lite
i need a GUI as i am linux newb and until i can learn more terminal having a GUI will help
I plan to run samba for file sharing, Sabnzbd and Nzbdrone for my Shows and Mysql for Synced Database
i know most people say to use a Server Distro but i have heard people of here before saying they use Distro's like Xubuntu or Ubuntu Desktop
just sick of having to reboot my server after updates or every week or two because everything has slowed down apparently you shouldnt have this issue on Linux
