Hello folks. Is there anything special that must be done in order to use an AMD Thunderbird 1000 sanely w/ Linux? I've had crazy problems thus far w/ a Thunderbird running SuSE 6.2+kernel 2.2.17.
The motherboard is the MS-6340 Micro-ATX VA mainboard w/ VIA KT133 chipset. and the damn thing has locked up solid already while in X.
Also which bootdisk from 6.2 should be used w/ Thunderbird boxes for installation purposes? Booting from 6.2 CD#1 causes a kernel panic with a nice stack dump.
Any help will be appreciated!

I am running a 900 Mhz T'bird on a KT7100 with absolutely no problems. however my system is well cooled with 3 case fans and a processor heatsink and fan. Have you tried installing any other OS on the system to observe the results. I suspect hardware rather than software is the root problem. -- Stu "The specification said Windows 95 or better, so I installed Linux"
