Could you suggest an appropriate configuration for Desktop use,
one
that is Linux compliant; driver et al; with names of components
please.
I recently bought desktop hardware for running fedora and everything
looks good so far. The following is the configuration,
a client of mine had to get a new system, and the hardware guy, knowing
that I would put linux on it, asked for specs. I said that as long as it
has a cpu, motherboard, petty, harddisk and RAM and the client was happy
with the price anything was ok with me. I have been following this
policy for many years now and the only problems I have faced have been:
1. an atom board did not support puppy 2.5 - but was ok with earlier
versions
2. some pen drives cannot boot - but otherwise work.
it is only with laptops that one has to worry a bit about some of the
peripherals - I am yet to face any problems there. Projectors, cameras
and mobile devices are still problematic.
