Fedora and Ubuntu!

31 08 2007

I was using Ubuntu up until now, with no sound yeah. Researching at www.ubuntuforums.org revealed that there is some kind of bug in nForce sound drivers and which have been reported ofcourse.

I the mean time I downloaded Fedora 7 for x64 processor, I installed it to my surprise everything was working perfectly. The sound, network and of course display too. Well I would say that display was not perfect with the “nv drivers” but still my display was working fine. I installed smart package manager from the Fedora Repos. Downloaded the nVidia Driver from the nVidia site installed the required software packages from the Fedora Repos using Smart and finally installed the nVidia drivers. Everything is working just fine!





First Post! Yeah!

Here, I would like to just get it straight. In this space I would right typically about, yeah you guessed it right Linux, Unix and all the *nixs available out there. The distro which I tried onto my PC.

I recently upgraded my PC to ASUS M2N-MX (AM2 Socket), AMD X2 3600+, 1 GB RAM, nVidia GeForce 6100 nForce 430 (on board graphics), 160 GB Segate SATA hardrive. Thats it!
