Not a support thread.
I have an upgraded Dell Dimension 8300 running Ubuntu 7.10 with Compiz-Fusion running perfectly.
Specs:
Dell Dimension 8300
Motherboard [Stock]
CPU: Intel Pentium 4 2.8gHz (under clocked at 2.79gHz somehow) [Stock]
RAM: 2 GB [Upgraded]
Graphics: NVidia GeForce 5200+ Integrated [Stock]
Audio: Soundmax Integrated Audio [Stock]
Power Supply/Fans [Stock]
CD/DVD[0]=HP DVD Writer 1040d [Upgrade]
HD[0] = 250 GB [Upgrade] (Ubuntu/Bootloader/Storage)
HD[1] = 40 GB [Stock] (WindowsXP)
HD[2] = 500 GB (External) [Upgrade] (Music/Movies)
Runs Ubuntu like a charm. I was truly surprised. If I had a dual-core CPU...this computer would be awesome!
