Interesting what they add to your emails.... For those who cannot read Spanish, it says, more or less, "Everything about Love and Sex! The complete guide for the life of todays woman". Many of the people on the list use Gmail and Google does not add stuff like that to our emails. I am going to send you an invitation to get a Gmail account. Saludos desde Colombia, Lanny

You can download the latest CentOS and look at the driver list for out of the box support. Since CentOS is built from redhat packaged source you can also inspect the release note on both the CentOS and Red Hat web pages. One caution is that a current kernel may support your card but the kernel in the install media may not if it is a very new part. This is easy to solve if you understand it but a road block if you do not. Do some bandwidth arithmetic and make sure that the slot you plug your card into can support the bandwidth you expect. Same for system memory.... I do know that the bandwidth of my little KIM-1 6502 processor based system cannot support 10Gb. Do some homework.... there are some good/ better/ best 10Gb parts out there now. One example: http://service.chelsio.com/site-bin/readme.cgi?FILE=linux/t3/README-cxgb3toe Since RHEL is supported CentOS is 'supportable'. Other vendors have cards and support too but a Chelsio driver engineer bought me a beer last month.... or did I buy him one..... so much beer, so much good tequila and so little time..... well never mind. -- NiftyCluster T o m M i t c h e l l
