Hello, Final follow up:
Here's a follow up. Following the advice of dwgallien <dwgallien@gmail.com>, I updated my BIOS from F5 to F10. At least preliminarily, this seems to have solved the problems. I haven't tried using the RealTek network controller, but, after running for a few minutes, I haven't had any of the otherwise frequent hiccups or other problems. I'll post another follow-up after letting it run for a bit longer. I feel stupid for not having thought of the BIOS update myself, but, oh, well.
After a couple weeks running with the upgraded BIOS, I can confirm that this did solve the problems I was experiencing. So, if you're running a GA-MA770T- UD3P, upgrade the BIOS to F10. Do so now. :) Thanks again for all the help. -Nick -- <<< The matrix has you. >>> /`-_ Nick LeRoy { }/ http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~nleroy http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~nleroy \ / leroy.nick@gmail.com The University of Wisconsin |_*_| 920-568-0151 Department of Computer Sciences -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
