  doesn't handle the above extension. So I have to use Intel's compiler,
  that is free of charge, but not open source :-( .
 
  During the installation process, the following message appears:
 
  The installation program was not able to detect the IA32 version of the
  following libraries installed   : libstdc++
  libgcc
  glibc
 
  Without these libraries, the compiler will not function properly.
  These libraries, if not installed, can be installed from
  the OS discs after finishing the compiler installation.
  Please refer to Release Notes for more information.
 
  Can I have both versions of glibc (64 and 32) installed? Any packages
  names?
 
  Thanks for your answers.

 I would have thought ia32-libs package would take care of those.

Or you can use 64bit intel fortran, which is also free (the same conditions) - 
in the case you want the 64bit version of CMPD

  Hi,

  The following entry does not seem to work:

  Giving the error:
  Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/dists/etch/updates/Release
  Unable to find expected entry  main/binary-amd64/Packages in
  Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
  And as expected, the Release file has no amd64 entry. Is there a plan
  to include AMD64 security updates in the etch package repository? Or
  am I just looking in the wrong place?
 
  Thanks in advance,

 The directory does not exist.  It does for sarge.  Could it be that no
 etch security fixes have been made since amd64 packages started to enter
 etch?

As far as I know the security updates for testing branch go through unstable 
branch with maximum priority (approx. 2 days till they get into the testing). 
If I'm wrong, please, correct me.

 I have never even heard of the brand.  In my book that is a bad thing
 since if I haven't heard of it, it is probably too obscure (at least in
 this part of the world) to have particularly good support.  Maybe too
 simplistic a view, but it has served my well for many years when buying
 computer hardware.

We will have (in our company) 2 pcs. of exactly the same model U mentioned. So 
probably I can later reffer - when they arrive...
BTW: I have Epox MB at home (sock. A with nForce2) and no problem (and my 
friends have similar experiences).
When U didn't hears about something it doesn't mean it is bad. Just it can be 
more specialised to some buyers...  Or people for some (stupid) reason dont 
know them... As far as I know, epox MB are excellent especially for 
overclocking (similar or very slightly worse DFI Lanparty MB) - better than 
asus - no offence ;)

  That makes me become suspicious. Am i the only one using this Board and
  if so why? What does everybody else know (about that Board), that keeps
  them from using it, that i don't? Or is it just my paranoia?

 I personalyl only buy Asus boards, and only the higher end models with
 via or nvidia chipsets.

  The only unsolved Issue i came across is its failure to cooperate with
  acpid. Which, presumably, can be dealt with by compiling a custom Kernel
  with apm support and using apmd instead of acpid. If one bothers to
  care.

Re: dual opteron m/b: S2875ANRF vs. GA-7A8DW

 Hello!

 I'm hesitating over a choice of a dual opteron motherboard. Currently I
 consider two options:

 Tyan S2875ANRF http://tyan.com/products/html/tigerk8w_spec.html
 and

We have (at work) this mainboard and I must say it is perfect rock-stable 
piece. It is used for biomolecules simulations, so most time it has full load 
and till now without any problem (for 3 months). So I only can give the 
recommendation for this one.

 Gigabyte GA-7A8DW
 http://tw.giga-byte.com/Server/Products/Products_ServerBoard_GA-7A8DW.htm

 They are quite similar (including a price ;) though there are some
 differences:

 1. Form factor ATX vs. EATX (although Gigabyte claims design to fit ATX
 chassis screw hole, and I think it will fit my middle-tower).

try to get size of MB ( e.g. from manual) and compare with your case...


 2. Tyan's board has Intel 82541EI GbE LAN controller on-board while
 Gigabyte's possess Broadcom BCM 5705 (which one is better?).

I don't know which is better, but the intel works perfectly - although tested 
only on Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) - no available 1 Gbps switch :(


 3. Tyan has 5 PCI slots, Gigabyte - 2 PCI-X and 1 PCI (currently I don't
 have any PCI-X devices).

 4. Tyan has integrated Firewire controller (I use firewire sometimes,
 currently with PCI controller).

 With respect to the features, I would prefer Tyan's board. But as a brand I
 like Gigabyte better than Tyan: previously I've had some negative
 experience with Tyan, and for more than a year I have been very pleased by
 dual-athlon Gigabyte motherboard GA-7DPXDW-P.

I know only about 2 Tyan MB in my neighbourhood - without any problem. But 
with one Gigabyte A64 (sock. 754) MB (K8VT800) we have serious problem - it 
cannot run with 2 DIMM double sided modules - but ram is problemfree - I 
don't know if it is problem with CPU or MB, but there are some people on 
forum.amd.com, which complain about same or very similar problem with 
gigabyte MB. :(

E.g. company Sunsway is making PCI cards with 1 or more (up to 6 I think)

products. But I don't know nothing about the quality of these cards or
