Optimized Linux os on macpro.?

[Christopher Lowden]

Hello
Following the very instructive FS discussion , I would like to create a dedicated Linux hard drive for opendcp. Could someone advise me on what the best Linux os to use for a mac pro 2010? Does opendcp use gpu acceleration as I have a GeForce 680 card ?
Many thanks

Usually, ubuntu is good option, but I do prefer mint for my Linux users.

For my opinion Gentoo is very good option, but you do have to know how to live in Linux and open source world, should be best performance, if properly tuned.

GPU acceleration is currently not used in OpenDCP as far as I know, so you should not care that much about.

Best regards,

afaik UBUNTU is the only distribution that offers propriety drivers. that's what you are looking for if you need high performance/certain features. but i do not think, openDCP offers GPU acceleration. it solemnly runs on (all of) your CPU cores i think.
