To follow up on this thread... The Optiplex 760 I have in testing
currently seems to cause nothing but headaches.
Video card wise I'd still agree with you. I'd especially agree with you
when dealing with the Dell 2009Wt wide screen monitor and getting 1680x1050
resolution consistently or trying to do dual-head spanning desktop with the
onboard Intel chipset and an ADD2 DVI-breakout card (in the end I sourced an
ATI X300SE which worked perfectly straight away).
Contrary to the reports, RHEL 5.3 does not seem to work out of the box
because the NIC is not recognized by anaconda. As I am PXEing I know the
NIC does work and is turned on ;-)
That's curious. I've now installed over twelve Dell 760 desktops with RHEL
5.3 Desktop via USB-booted kickstart to an HTTP server and it has worked
perfectly every time. My problem turned out to be that the NIC was off in
the BIOS. That's obviously not your problem so I wonder what is...?
