[SuSE Linux] AMD Pocessor and EPOX mainboard
hi all, Does anyone run SuSe 5.3 Linux with an AMD K6 -2 P400MHZ MMX 3D processor and/or an EPOX MVP3EM mainboard. The hardware support database of SuSe does mention AMD and EPOX but not the specific type. I'm upgrading my system and like to buy the above mentioned processor and mainboard. (cheaper than Aopen or Asus, and Intel) If somebody run one of these please give me your experience.

I run the AMD K6-2 300 3D processor with the MVP3EM Motherboard using both SuSE 5.3 and win98. It is almost 3 times faster than my Pentium 133. Suspect your 400Mz CPU will work fine. AMD recommends the EPOX socket 7 MB.

I have a cheap newer pc-100 motherboard from Alton, with a AMD -k62 266 Mhz. It runs fine under linux, but don't expect it to run win95, it is just too fast for some win95 timing loops. Even with the so-called "patches from MS" It runs under NT4 just fine. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
