ASUS P5A Super7 Motherboard
On booting I see the follwoing messages:
Is this normal? If not is there anything I can do about it? Disk access does seem a little slow.
You're using the ASUS P5A, which uses the ALI chipset. Stock 2.2.X kernels don 't support that chipset. In order to get full support, I'd recommend either downloading the 2.2.13 kernel and accompaning modules rpm from ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/kernel and try if that will run on 6.1 or get the kernel source rpm lx_suse.rpm from pub/suse/i386/6.3/d1 and compile the kernel yourself. Our 2.2.13 contains Andre Hedrick's udma patches that, among other things, adds support for the ALI chipset.
Many thanks Philipp. I will download the 2.2.13 kernel and modules and build a new one. Also thanks to Jon Pennington for his reply.
