Although I last used gentoo, I would assume that ubuntu has similar features: An older board with an i810 graphics chip works much better for desktop[py|esque|ful|like] use, as linux support for this obsolete piece of trash is fuller and richer. Freebsd tends to work better in every other way, from my admittedly limited experience. --=20 --
