IBM desktop systemx drivers
 
Hello,

I have installed opensuse linux 11.0 on IBM desktop system x3320, I have figured out that the process of work is slow than normal Xeon machine. As i was told by the IBM dealer that it should be faster than normal Xeon. They told me to install the drivers for this system. Can anybody guide me how to get drivers for the devices in IBM machine. Because, IBM only has drivers only for suse linux enterprise editions. Can anybody guide me.

Regards

Yes, IBM can "guide you". It's a supported system, so call their tech support, and they can tell you where to download the drivers, from their website.

Second, openSUSE 11.2 is the latest version, and 11.3 is out in two days, so you might want to try to load that. If IBM is telling you that SuSE enterprise is supported...consider actually doing what they tell you, since they built the box.
