Here's a strange one. Sorry it's so long but I am at my diagnostic end with this.... I have a system (and 3 other identical ones) that uses a Tyan S2098AGN motherboard, 2.1GHZ Celeron w/512MB ram. I have been running openSuse 10.0 to 10.2 without issues. The board has integrated video but only allows up to 8MB of the ram to be shared. I picked up some XFX GeForce MX5200 128MB video cards (low profile, pci not pci-e) and tried to install. The openSuse installer is gold until it reaches the "Resolving Kernel Dependencies" message at 58% and freezes. (10.3) I tried all version from 10.0 to 10.3 with the same results. I have also tried Ubuntu 7.10, Fedora 8, Linux Mint, many others. Every other Linux distro fails far before getting to their respective installers and I see failures in the text display showing trace callbacks or something like that. I don't remember the specifics and there doesn't seem to be a way to capture the information. I have tried 5 other branded cards and models all with the same results. I flashed the bios with all available updates and nothing works. Here is the clincher. I can install XP and PC-BSD and run them. I can also get Knoppix 3.4 to run (not the newer version). So near as I can figure there is some kernel issue. To add to the heartache, I have tried to disable and set every "safe" setting the motherboard offers with no effect. Does anyone have any suggestions other than getting new motherboards? No versions of Linux of the 6 or 7 I tried seem to work.
