So I finally sprung for a new motherboard. At 89 bucks ya cant go wrong and my
K400 is now a nice little zope/mysql server on the lan. Its been faithfull
for years being upgraded only recently from a 133.
There is one annoying issue that I have not wrapped my head around with this
new mb. Seems that cntl-alt-backspace normally used to kill x, now puts the
machine into sleep mode, instantaneousely. Never seen this one befor and was
wondering about advice as to where to go looking to address this little
annoyance.
ECS mb seems ok but definitely not for production workstations. Far too
sensitive, but for home use and for 89 bucks with an AMD 1.3XP (also 89) its
faster then anything I have been used too in the house...seriousely though I
just cannot believe the price or hardware these days. wow
