Has anyone had experience with the Biostar IDEQ 200P 64 bit system?
I have one. I have almost given up running Linux on it since there is some odd interaction between Suse 9.0 64 bit and the cool and quiet features of the CPU. If you load the CPU then the machine slows down over a few minutes to about 10% of its normal speed.
I have tried disabling acpi in the BIOS (so far the nearest thing to working), starting the the kernel with acpi=off, told cpufreqd to run the processor at full speed, and all of these things change the problem. I havent yet found a solution however.
I have to assume there is a BIOS/Suse incompatability here.
You can disable the k8 powernow driver by doing rccpufreqd stop rmmod powernow-k8 chkconfig cpufreqd off (the chkconfig will prevent loading it after the next reboot) -Andi
