I'm having trouble with most, but not all, USB devices. I have a Dazzle multiformat card which works with CF cards but not SD cards, which is what I really want.
By multiformat I assume you mean multiple slots. I use a 6-1 card reader.
Yes. CF, SD, MMC, etc.
However, if I try "fdisk -l /dev/sda", or "cdrecord -scanbus", or "mount /dev/ sda1", those programs just hang indefinitely. I can't kill -9 it, but if I kill -9 the shell, it dies.
Try fdisk -l without specifying /dev/sda. My Smartmedia card comes up as sdb1, so I assume each slot would be sdX, not all a. This would explain the hanging, as it tries to read sda when it is empty.
Same thing. Also tried parted, which just hangs, too.
I've also tried turning off ACPI in grub,
Since it seems to be a rather new mainboard, I would think acpi should work properly.
Quite new.
and disabling as much on-motherboard hardware as possible. I don't know why it says radeon@PCI:1:0:0, when my video card is a ATI AIW 7500 AGP card, though.
I believe the 7500 loads the radeon module. There is no AIW module. The radeon module handles the display.
I wasn't surprised there was a Radeonm modile loaded, I was surprised to see "PCI" on that line, since it's an AGP card. Am I safe to assume, this would NOT be covered by SuSE's support, even though this motherboard is in their database as fully-supported? -- DDDD DK KD An optimist thinks the glass is half full.
