I built a dual AMD on Suse 9.0 using a Tyan K2885 mother board (needed AGP). DONT use SATA drives. No drivers and Silicon Image cant tell us when :-( If you dont want AGP, the K2882 (scsi) may be the option. Yes, C++ on Suse builds 64 bit fine.

Has anyone built a Dual AMD 64 chip comp with Linux? I want to build a math powerhouse comp and thus want the 64bit chips. Dual would be even better. Any suggestions for hardware? Also, will the C++ compiler make 64-bit programs?
Thanks,
James

Tyan has drivers for the SATA controller integrated on the 2885 motherboard available on their website. I don't know how well they work though. Emil

I got my two HITACHI 160GB SATA running connected to the SiI3114 of my Tyan Thunder K8W today :-) Here you find the patch for the 2.6.0-test11 kernel: http://lwn.net/Articles/62230/ hdparm shows 58MB/s, no error until now, heavy compiling today using the drives. Regards Frank
