Using fakeraids (which most onboard raids are) isn't worth it. You can't easily move the disks to another system and continue reading the raid if the board dies. This is also true of hardware raids, but at least those you can move the controller over too, and usually you can get replacement raidcards (they change a lot less often than mainboards). Linux software raid generally is also better performance than the fakeraids, and easier to manage, and it is supported by the debian installer, which fakeraid isn't.

Re: What's the status of KDE in testing/etch?
Hi Steve: Did you succeed installing kde? I have just installed amd64 eich for dual opterons, X-system is waiting to install kde.

This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed.

Re: What's the status of KDE in testing/etch?
I have not found a current kde for etch so far; however, you must have the woody and sarge directories in your system; use find to look for them. There you will find what seem to be some older versions of kde and gdm; does anyone know how to make these work with etch? I suppose they are the older versions. I have a replaceable hard drive, so I can easily switch between 64 bit Windows xp, sarge, and etch. kde is available in sarge, and almost works; I just am not able to configure X properly. If I had xorgconfig available there, I think sarge would be acceptable. I recommend setting up so you can switch hard drives for this kind of work.

I have seen people claim to run that board with debian before, and being an nvidia chipset, it generally has no problems. Firewire is never a problem in my experience.

Fatal server error no screens found The errors about modules by themselves aren't fatal, except possibly for the mouse module. You can fix that by installing xserver-xorg-modules-input-mouse (or something similar, search for xserver.*mouse) in dselect).

This log file will tell you why it found no screens. One way for that to happen is when the vert and horiz sync ranges are too narrow and the resolutions too high. You can expand the ranges (the manual for the monitor will have the safe ranges, could be something like 30-65 for horiz and 60-90 for vert); or you can try a lower resolution in the screen section (for example, add 800x600 so that that is looks like Modes 800x600 1600x1200 The log file will be helpful in diagnosing this.
