Description:
|
This motherboard not competible with Mandrake 10.0 (kernel 2.4.x or 2.6.x) and Debian sarge (kernel 2.4.27 or 2.6.8) because the kernel my system suddenly have "kernel stack".
With kubuntu 5.04 work great,but with mandrake 9.0 (I change the kernel with kernel-2.4.22-10mdk from Mandrake 9.2) have problem if acpi is activated,and will be stable if add to the kernel option "pci=noacpi".
The onboard graphics are good as far as onboard graphics go, it's a GF4 MX 400 chipset with shared RAM that you can adjust.
I can play Quake3 ,RTCW and CounterStrike1.5(with wine) in High resolution and high quality with out a problem.
Soundcard onboard have a nice sound , with alsa driver, oss driver or nvsound driver.
It have FireWire card too and work fine too.
Nvidia LAN Card work great with forcedeth driver or with nvnet driver.

This MotherBoards have a Bad Bios ,this motherboards make FlashDisk (kingstone 256MB) error i can't boot from it's anymore ,and it's make My CDRom (FreeTech56x ) cannot boot from CD anymore (i can't install any distro linux using CDrom anymore ) including my FDD Drive too.
When I add new PCI devices (Ethernet card and Sound Card), first plug to MotherBoard the bios will detect it ,after few days suddenly bios not detect its anymore,so My Linux system cannot use those PCI card's too.
The Bios not compatible with kernel 2.4.22 - 2.4.25 ,so Distro like Mandrake 9.2 to 10.0 And Debian Sarge cannot install to my system.
Becarefuly if you want to buy this Motherboard !!!
nb: Sorry for My Bad English.
