LXF014 – What about Atari?
I’ve noticed in your magazine that many Amigaowning readers are concerned about the lack of support for their systems when it comes to Linux, and fair enough, the support for Amiga’s when it comes down to Linux is very poor compared to PCs.
How often does this apply to Atari users then? My Atari runs Linux Debian (Potato) better and faster, than Mandrake 7.2 runs on the AMD – by quite a long way actually, but is there any support for me, and the rest of us? It took me days to actually get it installed, but when it finally did go, I was able to set everything up, even the graphics card – which it clearly states is not supported! (Yes, Atari’s do have graphics cards – and soundcards, and all new ones even ISA & PCI Slots by the way!) It even lets me access both SCSI ports and the IDE line!
