https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=285044#c1 --- Comment #1 from Shane Huang 2007-06-18 01:58:16 MST --- ATI/AMD SB700 is a new south bridge chipset, this chipset is not fully supported for lack of the controller device IDs. four patches should be applied to support this chipset,these patches have been accepted by kernel.org: 1.Patch for combined mode 2.6.22 2.Patch for IDE device ID 2.6.22 3.Patch for SATA device ID 2.6.22 4.Patch for SMBus device ID 2.6.23-rc1 So If the kernel of next SLES/SLED version is AFTER 2.6.22, these four patches will be applied automatically. Otherwise if it is older than 2.6.22, then these four patches should be applied manually. These four patches for SLES/SLED are same as those for openSUSE(Bug 284195), please obtain them from the bug 284195. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So we hope the next distribution will apply these four patches before it's release. If the new distribution use the linux kernel after 2.6.22, then need NOT apply these patches manually since the kernel contains it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
