And its pissing me off cause I can't get anything to run properly on this shit.
To think I began by trying to install aircrack to steal internets from people when I can't do a simple copy paste 
Wtf linux

You gots to do research, mang. Linux, if shit doesn't work, you tweak it and make it works.

 this is so true
Before I could attempt to steal peoples wifi I had to figure out why the tap function on my touchpad is not working.
After 10sec research on google it turns out its a standard thing on Debian XFCE and you actually have to write codes inside some of the files relating to touchpad use.
So you have to do that sudo su shit and then edit the file through the terminal with a nano prefix of some sort (its more likely a function than a mere prefix)
# nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf
Section "InputClass" Identifier "touchpad catchall" Driver "synaptics" MatchIsTouchpad "on" EndSection
and you need to add
Option "TapButton1" "1" Option "RBCornerButton" "3"
above EndSection
all that for a mere tap function on your touchpad.

That's why it's a hacker/programmer OS

But it's super fucking powerful. But generally yeah, if you run across a problem... google is your guru.

Yup, same for aircrack
you need to compile your wifi driver with injection support (injection patch)
if no patch exists, you make a patch ;P
hopefully your chipset is supported for injection
you can change your transmit power too while you're at it, in the source of your wifi driver
expect to use a few weeks nights to get it to work (wep/wpa cracking), you usually have to write a script for it yourself
then you can learn bash for the script, and C for writing the patch for the driver
before you look back you have grown a stallman beard and 1998 is 2013
btw.. awus036h , that's a good wifi adapter with injection support, 1W tx power, covers 1-2km easily it seems (up to 7-8x more accesspoints than a normal laptop would find IME) free wifi, just use it for good purposes, then it's not illegal, it's your duty
free your computer from proprietary software is a good idea, you'll never go back, linux is much better (you don't sacrifice your freedom there) even if it takes time to learn, it's worth it, much more powerful once you know how to use it but with the newest Ubuntu, anyone can use linux, even people who haven't seen a PC before, it's just not as free as other dists (gentoo/slackware/debian i.e.)

Mine is Atheros AR928X, I've no idea if its any good.
I'm moving out soon, not being a moocher anymore but being unemployed and out of the drug business so I need to afford internet access somehow and the aircrack concept was right up my alley.
I believe that if I understood it well enough I'd probably forget about microshit and their fascist software but at this point its still overwhelming. Nevertheless I have the motivation (just need the proper tutorials the get the basics)

Do it right, install Debian
then compile a fresh vanilla kernel yourself from kernel.org 
you don't get as tempted to run proprietary software with debian as you get with ubuntu/dualboot as soon as you have a fresh linux system you will feel like wanting to learn about it, bash is very quickly learned
take your time, and get the right chipset for the job too (awus036h or prism or such chipset should be good, $20) intel works too, but not as good IMO, but it can inject fine with a hard to find patch
linux is easy when your hardware is supported and very hard when it isn't get sound blaster live 5.1 sound card, nvidia graphics card, awus036h or atheros chipset for wifi then everything will work out of the box almost (except wifi, you have to compile that with inject patch) but these days, mostly any sound card works with linux/alsa (onboard sound too)
just don't get an ati graphics card if you want graphics that works... those drivers never work(except with old kernels) nvidia always works perfectly with linux, no matter the card it seems in my experience
I always buy my hardware for linux/use old hardware, linux doesn't need very new hardware, runs smooth on old hardware
and if you want linux games , there is only one game quake john carmack is god he publishes all his games with full source so you can play games and still be free doom1,2,heretic,hexen,quake1,2,3 , those run perfectly on any linux system without lag and support network play, people still play them
just remember freedom is most important, that is why you run linux and won't go back

I'll have to hit up my buddy, he's a computer guy knows all that shit you're talking about. And yes I'm with Debian XFCE. One thing I really like is the terminal. So much win there

Man save yourself a ton of work and just install Backtrack or Backbox they already have all the tools you need, only thing is that backbox is an italian distro so it is a bit harder to resolve problems cause their forums are mostly in Italian.

I'd recommend ion,blackbox,evilwm,ratpoison as window managers you must try in that order
XFCE is boring ;P
they work very well with uxterm + bash, tiled window manager the first one, so it can fill op your whole screen with terminals next to each other when you spawn a new one
looks much better than gnome/xfce IMO, can't use xfce myself or gnome, they're really tedious to use
takes a few days to a week to feel comfortable with a new window manager

Linux is about learning and having fun while learning Ubuntu Linux is not about learning, it is a simplified linux distribution, everyone can use it, even people who have never seen a computer before (easier to use than windows xp because it finds all drivers for you,and you get office + firefox by default - you dont get that on winxp)

It's all in what your used to . Light weight managers are ok I tried a few but gnome or kde can be simpler to use depending on what you are doing.

Linux was good for a change even though it was annoying and took a lot of patience but my computer packed up so now it's back to windows where I don't have to convert anything as it's all there.

I used to have something similar from Engenius. A 15' USB extension is a good thing to have for optimum antenna placement. I only used open networks though.
