alin2xx7 0 Posted February 9, 2005 Hi guys. I want to know the opinion of those of you that have installed Linux (Fedora and Mandrake) on many hardware configurations and can confirm or make suggestions about the below configuration I want to use. I will use 2 computers with different roles, both having same configuration. What I need to know if the configurations are ok for what I am planning to use and if not please make suggestions. (I need to stay in a very low budget) These are the 2 computers : --------------------------------------------------------------- FEDORA Core 3 - this will be a computer that I want to use as : 1) gateway - all computers in the local network (1 or 2 windoze and 1 linux) will connect to Internet using this computer as gateway. 2) development server - used for developing web sites in PHP. (apache web server, samba, ftp ...) 3) workstation - there will be ONE user ONLY using this computer for : - browsing on the Internet - chat with gaim - OpenOffice application suite (KDE will be installed) --------------------------------------------------------------- Mandrake Linux Official 10.1 1) workstation - there will be ONE user ONLY using this computer for : - browsing on the Internet - chat with gaim - OpenOffice application suite (KDE will be installed) --------------------------------------------------------------- HARDWARE CONFIGURATION I PLAN FOR BOTH IS : Motherboard: AS Rock FSB 333 vga+lan+sound on board CPU: AMD SEMPRON 2300+, SOCKET A, FSB 333 MHz, L2 cache 256K CPU Cooler: SOCKET A / 370, TITAN (D9TBCU35) <3200+ RAM: 256 MB DDRAM HDD: 80GB 7200 RPM MAXTOR w/ 8 MB BUFFER CD-ROM: 52X LG (CRD8522B) BULK NETWORK CARD: REALTEK 10/100MBPS UTP CASE: 350W MIDI ATX P4 BLACK/SILVER C.2628 336-01 SYSTEM COOLER: TITAN (TTC-004) MONITOR: 17" AOC (HT731) FLAT, 1600X1200, TCO03 MOUSE: MOUSE PS/2 A4 TECH (SWOP53) OPTICAL KEYBOARD: TASTATURA A4 TECH PS/2 (KBS-721) ANTI-RSI Thanks a lot to all of you.
