How many Intel compatible distributions are there for Linux?
There are MANY distributions of Linux out there, and almost all of them are compatible with Intel processors. Some of the main ones are: ALT Linux CERN Linux Damn Small Linux Debian Fedora Core Gentoo Linux Knoppix Linspire Mandriva muLinux Slackware SuSE Ubuntu Vectorlinux Xandros Desktop and of course, Puppy Linux. Like I said, there are MANY distributions out there that will work with Intel hardware, but these are some of the most common ones. Puppy Linux works with almost ANYTHINIG, I used it to boot into a really old PC in our attic with about 128MB RAM, single core processor and a really bad graphics card - brilliant performance. So, whether you're asking because you have a computer with an Intel processor or whether you're trying to find a Linux distro for use with older hardware the ones I have listed should all work fine for you. I recommend Ubuntu, Puppy or Debian if you are new though I haven't tried all of them myself to comment on the others.
