hi all, i just bought this barebones kit from tigerdirect.com...
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...&CMP=ILC-FPM08
AMD Athlon 64 FX60 CPU
Asus A8S-X SiS Socket 939 motherboard
Power Supply: 500W Ultra V-Series
Fan: Ultra 2200 rpm X-Wind Copper Fan
i'm new to building up a linux box, but i'm thinking the only real "gotcha" i might run into is the video card. This computer will be networked with ethernet cable - so wireless wpa headaches don't apply.
I'd appreciate any advice on a decent budget video card to compliment this system that won't cause a lot of headaches with ubuntu and / or simply mepis. i've been using mepis for some time, but i think i might give ubuntu a spin or dual boot ubuntu and mepis.
any help with a video card recommendation would be appreciated - or with any issues i may run into but don't know it yet.
tia...
