RE: [suse-amd64] Mobos/Chipsets for Athlon64 3200+ &SuSE Linux 9.x
I have an MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum that I am quite pleased with. I use the Parallel ATA as well at SATA. The only piece that I have not tried yet is the firewire as I haven't had any digital editing to do since I hooked this system up. -Alain. -----Original Message----- From: Mikhail Kuzminsky [mailto:kus@free.net] Sent: Friday, June 10, 2005 10:17 AM To: suse-amd64@suse.com Subject: [suse-amd64] Mobos/Chipsets for Athlon64 3200+ &SuSE Linux 9.x I serached in SuSE hardware compatibility DB, but didn't find the necessary information. I need to choose chipset&mobos for Athlon64 3200+/1 Ghz bus w/Socket 939 (we work w/Opteron on Tyan mobos, and Athlon64 will be 1st). I want to work w/SuSE 9.x (x=0,1 are preferred in particular because of compatibility requirements of some licensed software). Really we don't need SATA; the graphics must be "minimal". I don't want to use Nvidia chipsets because of potential problems w/graphics. OK, there is VIA K8T800 Pro chipset. But I don't know about support of this chipset under SuSE 9.0/9.1. I know only that K8T800 is supported by 9.0 also, but K8T800 Pro -? (K8T800 pro, as I understand, supports Socket 939 and slightly modified bus). I don't want to buy ASUS A8V because of Marvell GigE networking problems - but I don't know about Gigabyte GA-K8VNXP939 boards: does they works normally/stable ? BTW, is somewhere the list of supported chipsets for (any) SuSE 9.x ? Any information and recommendations in discussed area will be helpful !
