Well, I didn't really do anything to configure X, just startx worked. 
I did write an xorg.conf so I the mouse wheel would work.   Back when
this thing was first new I tried amd64 on it and that worked well, too
but I missed Opera too much and it wasn't a 'real' amd64 anyway, so I
went back to i386.  I never thought to try bsd.mp, so I'll have to do
that sometime soon.

This box might be different from what you have.  It has no slots of
any kind and even has a disconnected laptop-style power supply and a
laptop cdrom.

ps, here is my xorg.conf, pretty plain.

Here is a dmesg from a GX620.  I can report that everything works
quite well, including X.

I can report that with a Pentium-D chip in them, a recent OpenBSD/i386 
snapshot will use both cores on an O620 (I should test OpenBSD/amd64, I 
guess).  SATA support seems to work pretty well, though I haven't really 
put it through its paces much with OpenBSD yet.


The Minitower case will take an Accusys box nicely, though you have to 
leave off (or cut) the plastic bezel (it actually doesn't look all bad 
off) and you will not get an internal CD.  Spend the extra $9 to get the 
PS/2 and second serial port adapter...even if you don't care now, you 
will wish you had it at SOME time in the future, and the $9 is cheaper 
than the USB converters that don't work as well.  In spite of the case 
size, there are only two PCI slots in the minitower case, which is the 
same number as the smaller desktop case (and if you need that PS/2 
adapter, you lost one of them...or the PCI Express slot).

OptiPlex GX620n - OpenBSD

[betojsp]

Hello a todos, 



The price of these Dell boxes is fair; my question is:



- Are they suitable to run OpenBSD on them.

- Is it possible to use them as a small server.



Thanks



Chao
