How does Ubuntu Desktop handle more then 4 gigs of memory?How does it handle Dual Procs?I have heard conflicting info on to install a 686 kernal on desktop to get full support for dual procs or dual core
ITIdiots did a video podcast on using and installing Virtual Machines on VMWare, it was based on a windows install but it covers everything about setting up your environments once VMWare is up and running. A link to their podcast can be found at www.itidiots.com, its episode 13 if I remember correctly.
I have VMWare Free Server and already installed Ubuntu as my second Operating System. Why would you like to play games in Linux instead of Windows, are you nuts? I've been writting for too long today and my fingers hurt now so I am not going to tell you all the sacrileges you commited by trying to play 3D Games in VMWare with Ubuntu installed. But ok, I'll see that you have pain to make multiple partitions in your main OS and use various Operating systems at booting your Bios. Let me tell you that this is better for playing games in Linux than trying to use VMWare. However VMWare is nice if you have only one partition and you don't want to have data in different drives. Well I will start using Ubuntu know, the installation has just finished.the Full screen mode in VMWare is amazing, and I also have 3 IP addresses wich means I can install a web server apache and still use windows for downloading bit torrent. This rulez
Playing games in Linux? Are you nuts? I'm not trying to play games in linux with VMWare, Wine, Cedega or even natively. That's like trying to have sex while wearing an tire on your dick. No, I'm just saying native d3d support is availably in an experimental fashion should you want it.Games in linux. Haha, oh boy, that's a good one. *wipes away tear*

@Tadorna, "If you want to virtualize only linux on linux, I prefer XEN too."Give it a year or so, and you'll be able to virtualize windows.
