Back again!
I’m back - finally! I got a new computer (no, not for Christmas, bought the parts myself a few weeks ago and assembled it myself) and until now it works great. Hopefully it stays that way…
The main specs are:
- Gigabyte GA-M55S-S3 (nForce5) motherboard
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 (Dual Core) CPU
- Gainward BLISS 7600GT 256MB video card
- 2 GB RAM (dual channel enabled)
Though there are some quirks concerning Linux and ACPI support with the current BIOS of the motherboard I’m pretty content with everything - as there is a workaround this issue. I will write something about that in the near future, but I’m still undecided which Linux distro I should use… At the moment it’s boiling down to Ubuntu 6.10 or Fedora Core 6. Well, let’s see and be sure that I’ll let you know ;-)
