Marc,

2.6.16.11 works. I tell u because i got an M2E with 1GB ram on Athlon AM2 under test since a couple of week and it goes fine.

BUT notice: i boot from SATA, dont have any PATA disk.

Maybe u can use that waiting for the patch

Bye,

Gianluca

Ok - I had a bad day today struggling with hardware. Having said that I'm somewhat frustrated with the lack of progress of Linux getting it right with Asus, nVidia, and AMD processors right.

I still have to run pci=nommconf to keep the server from locking up. That's with both 939 pin and AM2 motherboards.

This bug remains unresolved:

So what's up with the no progress?
