Best Linux OS to run RO

impp · 10-10-2009, 11:32 AM

OK I have been running on Jaunty 9.04. 2.6.26.15-server. (as it uses all 4gb of mem and the 512mb nvidia card)

Nothing but video card troubles - since the 1.0.8 update so tried some new drivers - big mistake. Managed to get back to RO launcher working again but video card problems are preventing the game loading - same old resource loading hanging.

Looking at the forum some suggest "use a different linux OS". Tried lots of the suggestions on the forum - nada.

So my question is which one works best?

I don't want to move back to Vista, but in order to play now I am going to have to.

edit: I have reinstalled with the most recent RO installer, stripped out all nvidia drivers, tried newer and older driver etc.
