Works like a charm.

A note: The on-board videocard (SIS630) can't be disabled with a jumper, Linux will always detect it and load the module. This is no problem, just remember to enable the nvidia drivers, else X won't startup.

Hi, I did a quick search at newegg and none of the terminators there have that video chipset. Could you give a little more info, like where you got it, is it quiet, etc. Thanks!

Well it's the SIS630 chipset, but in Linux the sis900 module gets loaded. The ata66 controller and the videocard gets detected as "SiS630"

I got it at the local computer store (Velsen, The Netherlands) a few years back.. It's called the Asus Terminator P-III and it looks like [url="http://www.asus.com/products/desktop/termk7_ddr/overview.htm#"]this one[/url]. It's not the K7 DDR, but the version with a Coppermine pentium 3.

It's kinda quiet, but in the living room any background noise is frustrating so i'll probably take it to a cooler-shop when I got some money.

The onboard videocard doesn't have tv-out so i had to put the pci Aopen GeforceFX 5200 card in..

Thanks. I'm in the market for a frontend or two. Can't decide which way to go. :)
