dear all I am planning to have a new openSUSE10.3 server and am gong to have a powerful hardware to run with. I am thinking about Intel Quad Core Q6600 and memory 4GB. Question is, is Quad Core Q6600 supported by opensuse 10.3? or do i have to install 64 bit version?
I've got SLES 10 running on a system with dual quad core CPUs and top sees 8 CPUs, so I imagine OS 10.3 would have no problem either as it's running an even newer kernel. As to your question about 64 bit, it's not an either/or proposition, opensuse is available in 32 or 64 bit versions. Personally I'd recommend 32 bit which works like a champ on that hardware. Some here will say that they've gotten things to work on 64 bit, but I would only recommend the 64 bit version on big servers.
