Hi all,
I am wondering what motherboards users are using on there Linux box? I had a Asus m4a79t deluxe but in corroded under 2 years and failed. Asus blames the customer oxidation and will not give warranty even though it has 3 years warranty. Strange how a old p5 Intel machine beside it is perfectly fine. Asus warranty not worth the paper its written on. Have a Asus crosshair V formula that spent more times being repaired than been used. It still comes up with eprom errors on boot and runs like a dog and Asus will not give money back as they say they do not support Linux. So we have proved that this brand is crap, what else is there?
Am looking at the Gigabyte ga-990fxa-d3, does this board play well with Linux as looking at putting it in what was the m4a79t box.
Thanks Gary.
Running a Foxconn G41MXE on this machine with PCLOS. Board is 64 GB, but PCLOS is 32 GB right now. I haven't had any problem with it at all. Brief specs: Socket LGA775 for Core 2 quad, Core 2 Duo, Pentium dual core, Celeron Dual core, or Conroe-L (whatever that is). Memory: 2x240-pin DDR3 DIMM sockets, supports up to 8GB. On board audio works fine with ALSA. I'm using a GeForce 550 Ti video card in it. AMI BIOS. --doug -- Blessed are the peacekeepers...for they shall be shot at from both sides. --A.M.
