Which Linux distribution to choose for office tasks?

Question

linux

I have never worked with Linux and have little time to learn, but I need a non-windows computer.
Googled on this topic, installed Elementary OS on the advice of users, they say: beautiful, comfortable, everything out of the box. And she turned out to be too tough for me.
More about what I encountered (Not very important):
I couldn’t set a screen resolution higher than 640x480, I installed a proprietary Nvidia driver, after which my resolution appeared (1360 by 768), but in fact the screen flew off the edges. The right and left parts of the screen were "cut off" by 5% on each side.
Googled and tried to figure it out. As a result, I entered only 2 commands: sudo nvidia-xconfig and sudo nvidia-settings (I did not change anything there). I rebooted the computer, as a result, even this crooked resolution disappeared again and only 640 by 480 remained.
We need a system in which there will be no problems at least at the stage of installation and preparation for use.

Answer 1

Maybe Debian?)
He should have no problems with firewood on the screen. That in itself is very stable + a lot of software.
You can also look at Linux Mint. But I still recommend the first one.

Answer 2

linux mint+1

Answer 3

The correct answer to such a question is the one that the nearest guru knows. Because, as SyavaSyava quite rightly noted, one cannot do without a tambourine. Even in hamster-oriented systems. I don’t know mint, I never had a mint, it seems to me that bubunta is the most office ...

Answer 4

Debian.

Answer 5

The children on the computer put the Russian clone of ubunta - Runtu. Just because of the lack of time to set up, I just installed it and that's it. The tasks of the computer are quite "office" - openofis, the Internet, arduino and toys. He himself stopped on CentOS. There I had to tinker a bit with the settings (codecs, proprietary video driver, etc). But once set it up and forgot.
