I am glad it now works, but please don't call it a "Linux distro".
Ubuntu and Fedora are GNU/Linux distros -- variants of the GNU/Linux
system.
Please don't call the system "Linux", because that would be attributing
our work to someone else and giving us none of the credit.
For more explanation, see https://gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html and
https://gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html, plus the history in
https://gnu.org/gnu/the-gnu-project.html.
