Go ahead Melinda, read the quote first

Techno advice of the day -> don't install Linux SuSE 9.2 on a 200mmx CPU machine. It'll run, but it's slow. As usual, my ability to make a soundcard work in any flavor of Linux has failed miserably. This one has a legacy ISA Soundblaster CT1350 and most any operating system will see this old, reliable pumper of tunes, bells and whistles. But me? Installing it on Linux? Nope! Using 192megs of 72pin ECC RAM on this machine and have decided it is an excellent platform for a new FreeBSD install. Anyway, just a geek having fun between chores on a lazy Saturday. Peace out!
