I think despite it being I suppose OT, this thread is maybe pretty
important to people considering buying a new motherboard and/or PC
to run Linux on. As such the mailings will help, and maybe put some
pressure on Asus, directly or indirectly.
I have no PC's with Asus/AMD configs, and am about to take delivery
of another PC also without. So personally the issue does not affect
me. However it is a very important one, hardware issues can be a real
bug-bear in the Linux/FreeBSD world, and the h/ware database that Suse
provides is hopelessly minimal and out of date.
So just use the delete message/delete thread key if you find it a dull
subject ! Or just filter them out...
