Thanks,

For now i will concentrate on getting a hybrid system going. but from what you have said I take it that a MB with nvidia 7series onboard would do well?

Users / video card on core or md
November 13, 2007, 03:25:58 AM
Hi all,

My apologies for bringing up a Question that has been done to death, but this hardware thing is really confusing.  The more I read, the more confused I get.

Anyway, I haven't yet got lmce up and running but would like to get a setup going which I can eventually sell as a complete system, if it's viable with lmce. Originally I could not get lmce dvd installed with the sis chipset onboard but just last week my motherboard died, so now new opportunity on new hardware.

I had a nvidia fx 5200 agp.  No good with new motherboard as it uses pci-e (sli ready).  I have ordered a 7600 gs card 256mb ddr2, is this good or overkill?

My main question is this.  If i build a separate core and md do I need the decent graphics card in the core or the md (I know that some mini-itx systems have been used ) or both?

thanks for your help.

Installation issues / getting the right kubuntu
October 22, 2007, 04:10:17 AM
Hi

I don't know which way to go, I want to try out linuxmce but i can't use the dvd install because I don't have a spare hard drive to completely wipe.  I downloaded kubuntu so I can repartition a drive myself and install linuxmce on top of it but i have found it is version 7.10 which is not supported yet.

Any suggestions?

thanks
