<I am looking for recommendations on chipsets/mobo etc that work well with debian. Normally, I would use anything <and just make it work, but if I am gonna spend money I may as well get the best performance I can. Hi Pete, I wouldn't want to decide for you, but I can give you a good site, where you can see lots of hardware specific benchmarks, test, etc. http://www.tomshardware.com/ I installed Debian for a friend recently and he was using an ASUS Board with an AMD XP2800+. The installation was well, no problems @ all. Asus does well, I think you can'T go wrong with Asus, Chipset if I'm correct was a nvidia2 chipset for my friends machine. Only thing I can advise, DON'T use REALTEK-Sh*t as NICS (build-in nic), you're better off spending some extra money on a good 3COM Nic or similar..... the Realtek-Sh*t loses lots of packages, when it's working at maximum transfer rate (e.g. SAMBA)......... as I found out (everybody had this experience, too?). Greets, Simmel
