Server dying problems

[Lush, Richard]

I'm not biased at all but I've never had any problems running Linux on
Compaq Kit.  I've mainly run Redhat on them and with stand hardware
configs it works fine.  I have had problems running non-standard
hardware but that goes for any system running Linux as finding drivers
etc can be a pain.

I'm not promising anything but if you are having specific problems I can
have a looking internally for answers.

I'm surprised you are able to run Linux on Compaq
servers.

Linux runs like crap on Compaqs, well, at least for me
it has.
