Re: [orca-list] vinux on optiplex 7010

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

I've Used all of the Vinux3.x releases, Vinux4, Debian weasy and one or two other distros with good results 
on a Dell octaplex2800. 
That's the closest I can come, but there were no issues with the sound, graphics or ethernet controlers. 
Raid levels don't depend on Vinux, Ubuntu etc, but on what you are trying to do; i.e. reduce the risk of 
downtime from a failed disk or improve performance. If the latter then it makes a difference what kind of 
work you mostly will be doing with the machine and if it's varied where you most would like to see 
performance improvement. How many disks you have of what kind and or how much you are prepared to spend 
purchasing drives is also an important factor to consider, and of course how mulch date you currently have 
and whether or not this is likely to greatly increase. 
I'd say for many, probably most cases logical volume management is an important part of the mix. 
This is not an accessability issue, much less an Orca one however, so I'd suggest you take this somewhere 
else. The Vinux list does deal with this type of issue if you do not find all you need in manuals, howtos and 
forum posts, especially if there's an accessability angle that you are having trouble with. The latter is 
really unlikely however as this stuff is generally all done with standard commandline programs which are 
generally best used in a bash shell with speakup. 
You may also wish to try the Vinux irc channel or one of the Ubuntu channels. #vinux is on irc.blufudge.net, 
and there are Ubuntu channels on  Freenode, irc.freenode.net...
