Hi Dan, I haven't set up a SuSE system using that chip, but maybe this resource might be of some help?: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=suse-multimedia&r=1&w=2 ... searching that archive for "VIA8233" yields this: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=suse-multimedia&w=2&r=1&s=via8233&q=b HTH & regards, - Carl
