I'm using the 64 bit version. If you're going to build the kernel, I'll try it, I promise. Let me know if I should read something about installing the kernel first, because Linux From Scratch is somewhere on my agenda later this year, after finishing the sysex driver :-) > [snip] > I actually want the /var/log/dmesg from Ubuntu, You can find that beautiful file here: dmesg<http://freqrush.cr68.com/medionakoya/dmesg>;-) I'm reading it and it's full of interesting info, I like it, thanks a lot for showing me this log file about the starting of every part of the engine. :-) there's indeed no BIOS-e820 saying e0000000 but I did find these lines looking for e0000000: [ 0.572327] Fam 10h mmconf [e0000000, e00fffff] [ 0.572327] node 0 link 0: mmio [a0000, bffff] [ 0.572327] node 0 link 0: mmio [c0000000, dfffffff] [ 0.572327] node 0 link 0: mmio [e0000000, efffffff] ==> [e0100000, efffffff] [ 0.572327] node 0 link 0: mmio [f0000000, ffefffff] [ 0.572327] bus: [00,07] on node 0 link 0 [ 0.572327] bus: 00 index 0 io port: [0, ffff] [ 0.572327] bus: 00 index 1 mmio: [a0000, bffff] [ 0.572327] bus: 00 index 2 mmio: [c0000000, dfffffff] [ 0.572327] bus: 00 index 3 mmio: [e0100000, fcffffffff] [ 0.572327] ACPI: bus type pci registered [ 0.572327] PCI: MCFG configuration 0: base e0000000 segment 0 buses 0 - 255 [ 0.572327] PCI: Not using MMCONFIG.

Thanks to trying the 64studio alpha release, I now know there's a need to update the BIOS, or to tell MEDION they have a bug in it. Cheers
