Maybe we could get a consensus of Linux distro's running the server
without issues in this thread?

No I don't, I was thinking that if I have to update I might as well get
a distribution that works well with BF1942, as this is the main reason
for using Linux. I was thinking of Mandrake but I did not see many folks
running it here on this test.

I have seen quite a few notes going back and forth on the stability of
different OS's for this test.
Some say Freebsd and other RedHat 7.x, others say others.
 
Has anyone been tallying up the score on which is most stable at
present?
 
I use TurboLinux 6.0 (came free with a hardware device of some sort or
another) and it seems to crash every map change. I am not around the
server to check it frequently but when I do it needs to be run again.
Thinking about loading something newer, and would like help on what to
choose.
 
Cheers
Roger
