I am looking to purchase bits for a reasonably grunty box which will be m home server and my sand box. I intend to install Ubuntu (64bit), Xen (VM monitor) and then have several VMs providing:
- File print server (apache/postgres) - Web server - Firewalling etc Currently I am looking at: - Asusteck P5QL-PRO motherboard - Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU - NVidia 8400GS 256MB PCI-E video card - 4 x 2GB Kingston ValueRAM KVR800D2N5K2 I have read that there are/were problems with Ubuntu/Quad core processors and some NVidia graphics cards. Trawling round the net hasn't been terribly enlightning. I don't need high performing graphics. Any comments welcome. David
