I haven't looked at it in a while, but last I did it was a enhanced RH. It seemed ok, but I really don't like their license too much so I haven't used it in a while.
AFAIK Linux ALWAYS has sent the HLT command to the processor. I could be wrong on some really acient version (pre v1 is my guess if any), but all current ones do that. To test stability I have been using burnP6 and burnBX found here. Although it didn't pick up a VERY VERY subtle bug in a...
Some motherboards that have ACPI enabled will also tell you the board name as part of that. I've seen a MSI board do it and also a Gateway/Intel one. This does require the 2.4 kernel and such, but it does work on some boards.
Opening the server is the better option as it also allows you to...
You'll need to look at a specialized distro as the standard kernel isn't happy with less than 4MB of RAM. most of those that will work are floppy based as I recall

Mesa is probably already installed, but you will need to screw with the NVidia drivers to make them happy
There is also a install and readme file on the Linux Q3A cd
I like Debian, but it does not have all the same pretty tools that Mandrake and Redhat have. It is very easy to manage though. I find the install not too bad as long as you know a little bit. My mother has managed to do it several times even from floppies alone.
I prefer to fdisk and format away to get rid of Windows, but that's me. I do suppose it can work both ways though. I do find M$'s version of fdisk rather limited though.
I personally like Debian a lot for servers as long as you're running stable. I'm unwilling to run Wood (testing) until it is stable as it recieves no security updates. I do run it though and it is quite nice.
The update and upgrade functions in apt are quite addictive though.

Yeah there are 8 and more procsessor Xeons as I recall, but because of the bus that Intel runs them with it doesn't scale as well as a Alpha or Sparc
In NT yeah, but it will probably be slow since you'll need to run it with the FX!32 layer. Under Linux, nope.
This is the problem with proprietary software, it can easily limit your options.
There are security holes if you don't patch them. You will need to port forward to your server if you want to play from it across the internet. This can be a bit of a PITA, but can work.
No matter the speed of the VIA vs other chipsets, its the only one that can be had in the system with support for 2gb of ram. This being at a reasonable cost of course. This is a important detail for GIS work as the files involved usually are fairly large. Not swapping is enough of a...
I know it's harsh, but there is no real excuse as far as I'm concerned since there is a failry prominent SEARCH button in the forums, and simply looking around the apache site should have turned up some info
The import button is in the 'Manage Bookmarks' section.
Using Mozilla is better than IE ever could be for me. It has finer grained control over the cookies easily acessable.
Konqueror is nice because it easily has control over JavaScript on a per site basis along with the cookies. It...
at the lilo prompt
linux 3
then you can rerun Xconfigurator or whatever MDK gives you
Besides once in X you can go to a console by doing ctrl+alt+f1 and do you stuff there. You can also change init levels by using the init command as root
