Pooky is running Fedora 11 x86_64 (64bit linux). It was running Fedora 8 with nvidia drivers for dual head support from December 2007 to September 2009. But Fedora 11 supported dual head without any additional drivers.

At the beginning, I had a lot of problems getting this computer running.

The first power supply that I tried (Skytec SKP-520PC/V) died. I got an identical replacement, but the motherboard killed that too. Then I switched to a different power supply (Topower TOP-400P5 EZ), and it finally became stable. This motherboard seems to dislike the Skytec power supply..

When I had the DVD-ROM drive (A Open DVD1648L) attached, I got "kernel: Disabling IRQ #16" messages, and my video card (GeForce 8400GS) started having problems. Since I disconnected the DVD-ROM drive, I've had no problems with X.

My disks are configured as follows (from top to bottom in the case). [updated 2009.09]

Before this, I had the following configuration, but when one of the 500GB disks went bad, I combined the md4 and md5 data into the new 1TB raid.

This is the second configuration for pooky. The details of the first configuration of pooky (2004-2007) is also available.
