Question

How many home systems for computer does Linux have and there names?

Answer 1

hundreds.

Some of the more common are Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Suse, Mandrake, and many versions of each, wow to name them all would fill this page and a few others.

I haven't used many Linux systems in the past few years other than ubuntu, and suse.

Google it.

Answer 2

Lots and lots, it changes all the time. New "distributions" as they're called can be created very often and other distributions become unsupported, so it changes all the time. I have heard an estimate that sounds quite accurate, around 350-400 mainstream "distros" (For short) that can be installed on a normal computer. If you are new to Linux, I suggest you check out the following to compare:
