I'm running RedHat 8.0 on a IBM Thinkpad T30 that has the ATI 7500 Mobillity. Have not tried openGL. Normal stuff works. Screen gets scrambled when suspending. Not sure if display driver or something else, still debugging. For for usual stuff, works just fine.

Anyone got a clue if it is worth it to wait for this new ECS board. I have the K7S5A that I am real happy with, but want to go to a RAID config. K7VTA3-RAID at $69 bucks plus $4 fedex shipping. Hard to pass up. Any opinions? BTW, will probably buy the 1600 XP that newegg is blowing out at $55...

I was running 55-56 on my athlon 900 with the stock fan. Went to the SVC-68 fan (and artic silver) with stock 80mm fan and now see mid 40's. Going to a bigger fan at a lower speed seems to be a good direction. And you can upgrade to a noiser, higher flow fan if you want. This heatsink is almost...

Should I reinstall over the copied partition, or should I wipe the disk and start brand new? I really hate spending tons of time installing and reconfiguring every stinkin app again... Any other ideas ?

Seems like the usual steps that worked on 95/98 don't work with XP. (And yes, I looked a the FAQ first, no joy) I need to upgrade my system disk. My old disk is an IBM and it is starting to make weird noises. So, I purchased a copy of Partition Magic 7.0 which is supposed to support XP. I...

Running a non-overclocked Athalon 900 200MHz FSB with the factory fan. Antec case with 2 fans, one pushing and one pulling. MBM shows 16/28/54. CPU has always run around 50, but seems to be slowliy climbing. Today it is 54. (Ambient temps are a bit higher, I guess). When it gets hot here in...
