How do Athlon users apreciate suse9.3-> opensuse 10
Not long ago I put a Asus A8N-E with an Athlon-64 3000 into my machine, and bought a suse9.3 with it, as this was a version that supported the Athlon. I installed suse9.3 without problems. Last week I downloaded opensuse 10, and installed it as an upgrade to 9.3. First I installed 10.0 as a completely new system, but this gave me so many inconsisten- cies that I decided to restart installation from 9.3 as a root-system. I got this installed, but again with so many inconsistencies that I decided to go back to my 9.3 . How are other athlon-owners' experien- ces? Thank you -- Julien Michielsen julien@michkloo.xs4all.nl

'Just did a Tyan MOB based system last week.......NO problems! I think the problem is the Asus MOB, which shouldn't surprise anyone. Fred -- Paid purchaser of ALL SuSE Linux releases since 6.x

Asus have a bad reputation for not supporting open source, for this reason I would never touch one of their motherboards. I have an Abit socket 754 motherboard, and I have run 9.2, 9.3 and 10.0 without any great problems. -- David Bottrill david@bottrill.org www.bottrill.org Registered Linux user number 330730 Internet Free World Dialup: 683864

I've been using nothing but AMD chips for as long as I can remember. K6, then K7, and a turion for the laptop now. Never had a complaint on any one of them as far as the chip goes. I also only use Tyan Motherboards with them, and I think that's a plus.
