New Linux Box
cymon:
It's going to run Debian. I'd like to pick up some SCSI disks, it has nearly every SCSI 2 interface onboard. I am going to put it in a regular ATX case, the one I'm using now has a busted power switch.
cymon:
Debian 3.1 Stable is now installed. Running it with XF86 4.3 and XFCE4.
And yes, it rocks. Linux FTW!
mobrien_12:
XF86????
I didn't think anyone still used that since the developer team went nuts.
cymon:
Sadly, x.org takes too long to compile. Remember, it's a PII. I had to swap the graphics for a Voodoo 3 since the Rage Pro died on me.
EDIT- I've located xserver-xorg in Debian repo, I'll install later as it's getting late here.
mobrien_12:
You had to compile X? Surely Debian has precompiled binaries?
The Voodoo 3 is a really good card. With MESA and GLIDE you get Accelerated OpenGL in DRI with no security issues, and the V3 has XV support as well.
EDIT- LOL you must have edited while I was typing. Anyhow... make sure to get Glide3 for the v3.
