Installed this new motherboard, but can't get 9.0 Pro to load the correct sound modules. YaST doesn't seem to be able to handle the 2.6.x kernels. The previous motherboard on which 9.0 was installed had a PCI ens1371 card, whereas this one has on-board sound. I've tried snd-ens1371, snd-intel8x0 and snd-via82xx, but all report Unknown symbols. I've noticed that this board has 2 separate sound sections, SPDIF and a normal one.
Sid, I admit to my dislike of Asus and have fought problems with their boards for a long time. The easiest and best way I've found, is to disable sound on the board and install a PCI sound card. Be greatfull you don't have more serious problems with it.

Hi all, There's a new "all OS's" BIOS update for that MB on Asus' website. - go to http://usa.asus.com/index.html - click on 'Downloads' - at "Please input Model Name" field, enter "A7N8X-E" and click "Go!" - the second file in the list is C18E1010.zip dated 03/31/2004 My 2 cents: I'd try updating the BIOS first. Of course, YMMV. Good luck & regards, - Carl - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - C. E.
