well say it is born to be grateful. If not go into the first group, but I have to thank our friends at the other side of the counter "for their assistance.
I recently changed teams. Finally I put aside my beloved Pentium 4 with Hyperthreading, and I picked up a Q6600, armed to the eyebrows. The truth is that in many cases I have to process at once a large number of photos, and the difference is quite noticeable.
But what was, as I said on more than one occasion here, with my old Pentium 4 every day made more use of GNU / Linux Although I can not consider, much less, an expert user. With the change of equipment also was moving toward 64-bit distributions. I always used and OpenSuSE Ubuntu , and none of the two distributions came to settle on my computer.
did not know where the problem could come. With Ubuntu, the installer directly hung up when I was analyzing the hard drive partition to start, and OpenSuSE, could do the installation, but when trying to boot, gave an error to start the graphics engine (Xorg), and could only work in console mode.
Finally, after reading many times our friends in "Across the Counter" sold equipment and made many configurations with Linux, I decided to contact them asking for some help. I must say that I got some clues, well, I got the key to start working a bit and try to solve it. But the key to everything has gone a step further. Much of the problem seems to be that the chipset on my motherboard (Intel G33) is problematic when it comes to be recognized by some distributions. If we add an ATI, which, although much improved support in Linux, it's no wonder we have a dangerous cocktail.
But the people of "Across the Counter" once again came to my aid, and seeing that not putting the generic driver tore OpenSuSE invited me to discover Fedora (formerly Red Hat, but for the desktop), which has better support for hardware, and the truth is that has been like a breeze.
For all this, and the trouble of giving me some tips to fix the problem I had, and finally solve it thanks to them, from here I want to thank you for the help. In truth, I was pretty lost, and now I've found some. So glad.
