"Emile van Mierlo"
Thanks for all input on compatible hardware for a SuSE 9.0 AMD64 out-of-the-box workstation instalation.
I now purchased a Tyan Tiger K8W (s2875) with 2 x Opteron 244, 2 x 1GB Kingston reg. memory and an ASUS Geforce FX 5900 graphics card, which should work fine. (with the Nvidia binary for 3D)
The only thing left is my SCSI controller to connect 2 x Maxtor 10K-IV U320.
I cannot find much information about compatibility besides that the adaptec controlers "should probably work". So I'm planning the Adaptec 19160 or the 29160N.
I've tested the 29160 and it works - the 19160 should work the same since it's the same driver, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj SuSE Linux AG, Deutschherrnstr. 15-19, 90429 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
