mainstream Dell and IBM machines with scsi controllers.
Seriously Les, I don't know if this qualifies but we support 180 Fedora
desktops in a university and a handful of servers running Fedora. The
rest are primarily RHEL with the odd Solaris box.
Thanks, that's better than I would have expected from my own experience.
The hardware has
changed almost every year but the number of machines has remained
stable. I can't recall a kernel update that has caused major breakage
and since the RedHat days we've used FC2, FC4, FC5 and now F7. The only
real PITA with regards to kernel updates is reinstalling the NVIDIA
drivers after a kernel update.
Anyone using firewire or the MPT scsi controllers that Dell or IBM have
shipped? I guess IDE has mostly worked OK.
