Debian Rocks

My introduction to Linux was through Mandrake 10. Not bad, very bloated, difficult to configure (IMO).I was pondering about my dilemna with Linux the other day and thought, "Hell, my old P2 wants to grow arms and legs, so it can pin me to the floor and bash me for installing Mandrake on it.

The Icons Of Zip Files Are Wrong Everytime!

Hello! I am going crazy for a silly little thing. Please help me anyone! The icon for ZIP files never shows the way it is supposed to. Instead it insists on displaying the Windows 'default document' icon for ZIP files. If I rightclick a zip and choose icon properties, I can set the icon to be fetched from the winzip executable instead, and all looks fine and dandy inside the properties dialog, but after refreshing or repairing icon cache it is still the default document icon that
