Hi
Can anyone who has tried, please tell me if any of the latest motherboards provide an 'out of the box' install of SUSE 9.0 AMD-64 without the need for kernel patching. Particularly looking at the MSI, Gigabye and Asus boards, running nVidia and VIA chipsets. I'm tending to lean towards the VIA chipset boards (K8T800), so any guidance would be appreciated.
Just started a "out of the box" 9.0 install on the following hardware: Tyan K8W (S2885) 2x 242 cpu's 2G ram 180G ATA133 hdd nVidia GeForce FX5950 Pioneer 106D dvd/rw This will work, but I will have to grab the latest kernel to support the AGP chipset and compile up the nvidia drivers for full support of the video card (nvidia provide 64 bit drivers, hence why I went for that card rather than an ATI).
