I installed the 1276_64 kernel.
Open Office works.
VMware, using vmware-any-any-90 compiles, but hangs when trying to open
a virtua machine
Sometimes a hang when accessing cifs shares (linux also sees old copies
of files from a 2003 server share)
Second marvell pci-express GigE controller on NForce4 Ultra Giabyte MB
still doesn't work.
