The latest Ubuntu Hardy (8.x), with all new updates.

Your idea to compile it might be worth considering, as I have a dual-core (AMD 
64Bit X2 Dual Core) which is probably introducing compatability problems. I am 
running and have installed the 64-bit version of Ubuntu, and could not install 
Adobe Flash, since they don't have a 64-bit version for Linux (package manager 
won't allow the install).
