Well, I'm about as "bleeding edge" as it can get here with this new box. I did have to add a PCI sound card, but the SATA and all the rest of the "goodies" was seen and installed during the inital install. I did have a glitch with sound, but I think that is a permissions thing that SUSE just hasn't fixed yet.
Hey fred care to tell us what your bleeding edge hardware you have runnng there. I'm in market for some new stuff for a machine for server at home
Sure......it's probably the best well-built box on the market for the money. It's a Medion (German owned company) Composer 5200....Best Buy has them. It's a 3.2Ghz P-4 with 800Mhz. FSB, SATA w/200GB SATA drive, nVidia PCI Express 16x, bunch of USB ports, 1 DVD drive and DVD DL (dual layer) burner, etc.....all for uner $700. The sound isn't supported so I installed an SB Audigy 2 ZS.......ships with 512MB of RAM and I added another 512.
Wow, I have a Medion, i didn't know they were German owned though. I bought mine at best buy for 433 dollars, it came with 256 RAM, an 80 GB disk, DVD-ROM and CD Burner, and internal sound card. I added another 512 RAM, a neon blue exhaust fan, a 350 Watt Power Supply, And an Nvidia GeForce FX card with 128 MBs Video, heh. I had it as my web and FTP server but the power supply is doing not to well and I need a new one.
