Hey guys,
I have been surfing all over and trying different things for 24 hours now, I am new at the Linux stuff and a bit confused.
This is my setup HW:
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (64bit)
Motherboard: GigaByte GA-K8N-Pro NVIDIA
HD: SATA Seagate 80gb (Serial ATA)
RAM: Corsair 512md RAM LC2 400MHZ
Graphic: AGP ATI Radeon 9600 128mb
Sound: Realtek Onboard Chipset ALC658
I am using Slackware 9.1 which I like very much, so far so good everything works except the sound (ALC658).
Problems are:
- AMD 64bit CPu, should I use the Kernel x86_64 which was initially a port to AMD64.
- SATA drive is not seen during install... I can live with that I have a spare 6GB IDE drive, so I installed on it for now.
- Sound does not work and Realtek support staff told me to use the AC'97 Audio Codec Driver to fix it. unfortunatly it created more problems and I had to go back to previous kernel.
- The NVIDIA Chipset on the motherboard is not recognized by the kernel.
- ATI card, I try installing their drivers fglrx-glc22-4.3.0-3.2.8.i586.rpm, which could not qualify due to dependency errors:
Can anyone help?
I did not know how much info I should put in this post, u know the longuer the less people tend to read. So I will only past was the syslog said abot the NVIDIA and the sound card:
kernel: agpgart: Unsupported NVIDIA chipset (device id: 00d1), you might want to try agp_try_unsupported=1.
kernel: SubID=0x1458a002.
kernel: PCI: 00:02.2 PCI cache line size set incorrectly (0 bytes) by BIOS/FW.
kernel: PCI: 00:02.2 PCI cache line size corrected to 16.
