Both setups worked great, there was only a little trouble with the kernel switching to the PCI card if I set the bios to use AGP, so I just set it to use PCI all the time. For the Nvidia cards, I used Nvidia's non-free drivers. They work awesome. For the Matrox, I just used the in-tree kernel driver. Worked just fine. Also, don't try dual-booting this with Win2k.

This may very well turn out to be a major portion of my science work. To that end, I'm curious about what you know about multi-processor Linux boxes. I'm interested in trying up yo four processors (probably start with a dual proccessor, but eventually add up to four). I suspect there are quad processor MB out there. I know Debian handles this right out of the box, but how hard is it to compile for the additional processors? Have you ever priced this sort of machine? I'm curious about how much I'm talking about. I'm researching this for a currently deployed naval officer (a meteorologist) who's internet connection is a bit chancy...he's somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic. Any info or links appreciated... I recently picked up an Abit BP6 (www.bp6.com) off ebay. It's the only motherboard to support dual socket 370 Celerons, which makes it dirt cheap, which is why I got it. For the kernel, I'm pretty used to compiling myself, so it wasn't too much harder. The only relevant change (I remember, that is) was to enable SMP and limit the number of processors to 2, only because they said it bloats the kernel a little bit for each extra you compile in. That being said, I belive Debian has smp versions of some of the kernels readily available from apt-get, with a name similar to kernel-image-$VERSION-$ARCH-smp. Because the BP6 is a wee bit on the slow side (dual 300A's, running at 375), I like to strip as much out of the kernel as possible. Same goes for a dual pentium-pro motherboard that I also got on ebay. Expect it doesn't have a VRM, so the second CPU is doing nothing at the moment. Of course, now that I've got a dual proc system, I will never go back. I'm currently waiting for the AMD Opterons to go down in price, because I've pretty much decided that my next box will be at least a dualie, a quad mobo if I can afford it. If you look around on ebay, there are some dual Itanium systems pretty cheap ($750-$1000 range), and I've seen quad Pentium Pro systems for less than $300 (not including shipping, unfortunately) The ultimate in SMP is, of course, Sun Computers.

Then leave 22 open for connections to the box itself or block it off completely with an iptables rule. At least then a script kiddy won't simply find port 22 open and start to bruteforce your ssh password. He has to scan higher than normal to find your SSH which he/she is less likely to do. This is a ``security by obscurity''; a naive approach that works by giving you a warm fuzzy feeling that you've done your homework, which lessens your alertness, so you won't ever notice the intruders.

That way you can have up to 11 devices (4 IDE and 7 SCSI). If it's a 68pin model (like my Adaptec 2940UW) you can put on much more than that.
