Manx and Adam, This looks like the bug I am having. I tried Manx's solution but found that if I added the acpi=off to the memu.lst grub config file it solved the problem and my tyan systems all work fine now. Robert On Tuesday, April 29, 2003, at 11:42 PM, Manx Biaggi wrote:
Nope but there are new 8.2 drivers on the Nvidea site now, i had the same problem with my Abit K7F-S and resorted to putting a Realtek 8139 based NIC in for the time being.

I know I must be missing something. For a fairly long term Linux user, I'm getting deeply frustrated. I bought this board thinking it had all of the cool features I needed, it does - but apparently it sucks for Linux.
I've installed 8.2 and most everything is cool, except for the NICS, which I absolutely can not get running.
Of course, I have downloaded the ASUS/Nvidia Linux drivers (suse 8.1, I believe) and installed them (rpm) - no go. Next, the src rpm, wouldn't build, tons of complaints. So, I'm stuck. I've never recompiled a kernel (so maybe I am a newbie, but never had to).. has anyone managed to get this mobo to run on 8.2 with at least one of the two nics (asus nvidia or the 3com). If it is simple, I've screwed up somewhere, if it is complex (i.e. kernel rebuild), I wouldn't know how to do it - so please tailor your response for me (please!). This is my home machine for remote working, and the longer it takes to get the a nic running, the more I sit in the damn office.
Much, much thanks and gratitude for anyone taking this question on. -Adam Kimball Oakland, CA
