Hello All,
Seems as if, Mr. Eshwar's (hope spelled it correctly), hardware details were blocked. I, on his behalf, am posting his details.
Intel's website recommends Mandriva 2007 to work out of the box. If someone near the easter suburbs of Mumbai (KanjurMarg, Thane, Bhandup), could help him out with a copy of Mandriva 2007, please do so.
Alternatively, if you have tested any other distro with this hardware and would like to recommend that, please let the list (and him) know about it.
Here's his hardware details.
Intel Pentium D 2.80 Ghz(dual core) Intel D101GGC motherboard 80 GB samsung HDD 1.44 MB 3 and half inch FDD Combo drive(CDRW/DVD-R)(TSSTCorp CDW/DVD SH-M522C) Samsung monitor SyncMaster 594 MG Easy Internet kybd from logitech logitech scroll mouse(optical mouse) 2 buttons,1 wheel D-Link GLB502T router for MTNL broadband
Psst... I think his earlier message (the one before the above was around >100 KB, and so I guess, bounced back)
