For a newbie, I'd recommend Mandrake or SuSE.

Slackware will take you longer to learn, but it's more powerful after you learn it.

I heard Slackware / Debian are good.... I use mandrake but it is too userfriendly

I aslo heard slackware you need to do everything manualy... this will help me learn.
