ASUS A8N-SLI Motherboard: comments?

2006-03-29 Thread Hendrik Tews
Dear all,

does anybody have experiences with the ASUS A8N-SLI Motherboard
or its Deluxe variant? Does Debian run out of the box on it?

What motherboards do people use or recomment for an AMD dual core
Athlon (Athlon 64 X2)? 

Thanks in advance,

Hendrik Tews

You probably need a non-Sarge installer for nForce4 - be it Len's 2.6.12 
installer, Kenshi's 2.6.15, or an Etch daily image.


Try Via K8T890 for something that just works with Sarge (that said, you 
want a newer-than-sarge kernel to properly use dual core anyway)

Hello Hendrik

I have a ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe with SATA drives.
For installing I have used the Sarge-Install-DVDs (2 pieces) and it
worked without problems. The drives are at the nvidia sata controller.

I did have a few problems with disc enumeration order differing between 
install and sarge, but this was on a fairly complex system with 4 SATA 
drives, a couple of genuine scsi drives and a legacy PATA (ie IDE) drive.


The grub menu written by the installer tried to boot from the wrong disc 
(because of said enumeration difference), so I used a grub floppy and 
edited the entries on the first boot, and then changed them permanently.


Most people with simpler systems have no problems. Unless my memory is 
failing, Jo is not right in recommending the  Via K8T890: it is a Nvidia 
 nforce4 chipset.


Maybe Len's 2.6.12 installer might get around the problems that I saw: I 
expect that the disc enumeration will match.

Re: ASUS A8N-SLI Motherboard: comments?

2006-03-29 Thread Pete Klemm
I have a ASUS A8N-SLI Premium, with 2 300Gig as RAID-1 on the Silicon 
Image 3114,
SATA controller a 74G Raptor SATA on the nVidia SATA and 250G ATA on IDE 
Primary

master.

A. E. Lawrence is correct on the disk enumeration issue. I am running 
2.6.12-686-smp with
udev 0.87-1 and the disk enumeration is quite flaky as some times it 
boots properly and
other times not. udev also has a problem with my Radeon 7000VE in that 
it does not create
the frame buffer devices. It also had problems with the Marvel Yukon 1G 
ethernet net

interface until I disabled it from BIOS.

So for now I am running 2.6.12-386 with an older udev.

If anyone else is having similar issues with the ASUS A8N-SLI Premium, 
I'd be willing
to work together on getting these issues resolved. I am new to 'udev' 
and do not have

a great understanding of what is due my ignorance or to bugs.

Pete

eclipse has been uninstallable in debian-amd64 for weeks. Anyone knows why or 
how long it will last approximately? :(

Re: ati vs nvidia, how to tell if sleep is supported

 Hi,

 I need to get a new notebook in the near future, and want an AMD
 Turion.  At the moment I am trying to narrow down the search, I found
 some reasonably priced Asus, MSI and HP models.

 Some models come with Nvidia cards, some with ATI.  On linux forums I
 was told that I should avoid ATI because their attitude about Linux
 support (especially for 64bit).  Is Nvidia better in this respect?
 Should I prefer one over the other?  I am not doing any gaming, but
 sometimes rely on OpenGL for data visualization.

 Another thing I am concerned about is sleep (suspend to RAM).  Some
 Turion notebooks are pretty new and not all of them have a writeup at
 tuxmobil/linux-laptop.net, so I don't know if sleep works.  How can
 one tell that by the specifications?  Which component does sleep
 support depend on, the BIOS, the chipset, the graphics card?  Anything
 to watch out for --- are there sleep problems with Nvidia/ATI?


On ati-devices only the vesa driver runs fine 
-- follow the tread http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=253

Running AMD64 sid on the Deluxe for 6 months, haven't had a single 
problem (installed with netinst). It's dual-booting with Windows 
(32bit), where I have had also no issues. Only one SATA drive though.
