Hi,
I am still keeping my 7100/80 and my iMac bondi-blue, but I don't use them much any more.
My main computer is an AMD X2 64 at the moment, with a boot selector for XP and Linux.
What kind of Linux host system can you recommend for emulation?
I had Suse 11.1 64, which was very snappy except it didn't like my ALC662 sound chip.
After I found that Mandriva 2010 32 worked perfectly with my netbook, I tried the 64 bit version on my desktop.
Unfortunately I couldn't manage to make SS run. So I "downgraded" to 32 bit, which is not bad at all and does play with my sound chip.
I just feel, that SS is not as speedy as it was with Suse 64 bit, especially the FPU emulation has become rather slow.
Do you have some experience with 64 bit Linux host systems?
Which distribution will work best with AMD or Intel dual core cpu's?
