I have MDK 9.0 installed on Dell Optiplex GX1, with 350MHz PII, 352meg of ram helps. It runs fine, although, for some reason, i have had some problem, with losing it on network after a few hours of inactivity. I dont know why. That has been only problem with it.
I got so tired of that problem, however, i reinstalled Xandros on another partition, and am using that currently on that machine. Xandros doenst recognize the onboard sound card, but otherwise works well. --------------------------- Monday, January 27, 2003, 7:11:44 PM, you wrote: J> On Monday 27 January 2003 05:38 pm, Kaj Haulrich wrote: >> Anyone here managed to install Mandrake 9.0 upon a Dell >> Optiplex ? - If yes, what's your mileage / experience ? >> >> My reason for asking : I just contacted Dell Denmark and >> asked for an *empty* Optiplex.
