Just so folks don't think that Peter's problems are due to the Nforce
2 chipset., I'll report no such problems with my LeadtekK7NCR18D
(nforce2) mother board. DMA is working, USB and USB 2 work perfectly
my onboard nic is fine, and the onboard firewire seems to work too.
My last problem is getting lm-sensors working. I tend to stay FAR
away from VIA chipsets due to AGP problems I experienced with 2
different VIA based boards. Nothing against Peter's judgement, just
my personal experience

I finally gave up on the GA-7NNXP because I just couldn't get IDE
working right in linux and this supposedly fast machine felt like a
386. I also got lots of these messages:
hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x64
hda: lost interrupt
hda: dma_intr: bad DMA status (dma_stat=70)
hda: dma_intr: status=0x50 { DriveReady SeekComplete }
...and substantial disk corruption. It performs great in Windows, but
linux :--(
The on-board USB and LAN didn't work either, nor did AGPGART. I swapped
the board for a GA-7VT600 1394. That uses the VIA KT600 chipset and is
much more compatible.
