Thanks Andreas, your answer helped me very much. Last Question is a working gravic-chip. 3D and or OpenGL must not work now and I'm stil happy with Nvidia GeForce460MX. Their drivers I get with YOU comes easy and works without problems. I hope there's not only serverowner reading here. Andreas Jaeger answers:

I've no problems to install SuSE8.x on x86-32bit or compile some apps. But compile a Kernel is to difficult for me in the moment.
We're currently working to get teh Asus running. You can boot it with acpi=off and it works (but without the onboard network chip).
I don't need the Promise-SATA-Raid chip but need Adaptec2940-SCSI card for HD and CD-Rom, the Realtec-Lan and ALC-Soundchip. I want use xfree, KDE, Gimp, Ooffice and Sound with alsa. Have I a chance to get this "out of box" with the 8.2beta?
The rest should work fine.
Or is the Tyan-ThunderK8W (1 CPU fist and <4GBRam) with the AMD8131 chipset the bether choise, means bether support and easier to install?
The Tyan should work just fine. -- Ciao Marco, registered GNU/Linux-User#313353
