Hi, all My old VIA mainboard was gone weeks ago and I bought a nforce2 board to replace it. I got a lot of situation with this new board:
1. usb mouse won't work during mandrake 9.0 installation event I set it to USB 1.0/1.1 only,but it works ok after new system start up. Is this a hardware or mandrake problem? 2. while review dmesg output,my IDE drive hda doesn't indicate as UDMA100. It does show as UDMA100 in the old board. Should I run hdparm to get better performance? 3. It quit offen that I got heavy disk I/O while using mozilla to surf the net. At this time, I can barely move mouse or do anything else. How can this happen? This is my first terrible experience under linux. Is it possible to tune the system for better performance. 4. Each day I use ntpdate to sync system time with a time server, I got offset > 100s. The value for old system always less than 5s. Is it possible caused by point 3? I have to say that this board works much better under windows than linux. Do you have recommendation for AMD boards which has best performance under linux? VIA? SIS?
