Because Linux has been solid on lots of other hardware for lots fo people for years. > Funny how this is the same hardware that runs Windows without a hitch. Different OS's and different drivers behave and tickle the hardware differently. Kernel compiles tend to be really good at finding bad memory and other flakey hardware. I like to use a kernel compile as a burn-in test. I doubt you have ever compiled the kernel on Windows. The hardware may be broken in the form of chipset and Windows has workarounds, that seems to happen often also. How much time does this hardware really spend running Windows vs Linux anyway if you are dual-booting? I bet you use the hardware for different tasks under each OS as well. - -- Tracy R Reed Read my blog at http://ultraviolet.org Key fingerprint = D4A8 4860 535C ABF8 BA97 25A6 F4F2 1829 9615 02AD Non-GPG signed mail gets read only if I can find it among the spam. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGa2/I9PIYKZYVAq0RAqvlAJ4kvv9dKE4M+tsKei5e3fIX/tyFwgCZAeWs FMpR2gDqdUFfoyjxY+6hbJM= =ejpi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-lpsg
