Without installing nVidia drivers, after tuning BIOS and OS;
NOW
- FC5_64 does not freeze frequently
- onboard LAN is working for at least one day
- onboard sound. Haven't check it yet because no sound files on this
new box.
- "ata1: command..." does not appear any more
After enabling "OnChip VGA TrapEnable [Enabled]" onboard LAN is working
without causing FC%_64 freezes. Internet browsing has been working at
one day.
Problem remained unsolved (so far discovered)
- USB thumb drive doesn't work on this box
- poweroff is NOT power off ONLY system halted.
I suspect whether the problem coming from kernel booting option -
noacpi
(without this option the box will hang)
- the warning "Powerno-k8: mp system not supported by PSB Bios
structure still appears on starting booting
I'll continue googling around for information to solve above problems.
I'm quite happy with FC5_64. Tks again for your advice.
