But if
I take a step toward finding whether my Xeon computer works with linux
then I will have to take that opportunity to delve inside everything
about workings of linux. Otherwise it won't be worth the effort, I feel.

Get a copy of the Gentoo LiveGUI USB:
https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/
Write the ISO file to a USB thumb drive:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Media#Writing_a_bootable_USB
Basically, the command is:
dd if=livegui.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4096 status=progress && sync
You just need to know what drive (/dev/sdX) is the USB.
After booting the LiveGUI, your Xeon will work.
My Xeon works fine with Knoppix on a USB drive too. I want to use it with a full-featured linux os installed on the HD, not from a USB, if that's what you're telling me to do.
