Just out of curiousity: Is it possible to run SuSE linux without a video card, after it has been installed. The concerned system is performing already for a long very well as email server, but the video card is getting bad. The box is accesible via ethernet, so this should be sufficient for the server, isn't it? -- Richard Bos For those without home the journey is endless

Sure, you'll probably want to setup a serial console though in case you can't in through the network for some reason. Also, you motherboard may not be able to boot a video card but most can. -- -ckm

My router box has built-in video on the motherboard and I only used that to set up the OS. So your email server should be fine... as long as the video card doesn't catch on fire. ;) Christopher Reimer
