    you can use open suse or mandriva , which bundled with most of the softwares you need, as well as ubuntu , in these softwares installation is also easy, Both three are nice os;s.

    well thanks a lot for your reply but are u sure i should not go for fedora?? b'cause i've checked on net & it [fedora] has good rating when it comes to programming [like in java].

    please do let me know in detail if you can.
    thank you

    Java almost works same on all distributions. And ofcourse Fedora is nice os, But you should avoid using GCJ . I heard it is not much good, and for project works I suggest you to use the Sun JDK,
