I have started to really configure my kernel, and it would be easier if someone with the same system like med could paste their .config here. _________________ /occe

I have the Abit AN8-Ultra, I am running into some display issues at the moment, but I can post my config when I get home from work if you want it. Just let me know. _________________ -RBJ1128 |

http://home.earthlink.net/~paulsdead/config-vanilla
Here's the config I'm using on 2.6.14-rc2 vanilla. I'm using an SB Live Audigy for sound, so unless you have an emu10k1 based soundcard, you'll probably want to change it to the i8x0 sound driver. I also have a dual core chip, so if you don't have one of those, you can get rid of the smp stuff. _________________ "we should make it a law that all geeks have dates" - Linus |

I have the exact same motherboard as you with a dual core chip. Using IDE drives. Everything runs great, except the occasional 'lost ticks' in my log messages, even with the 'notsc' boot parameter, which I'm not aware of being a kernel config issue. And I don't think this will affect you with a single core anyway.
I can't vouch for the elegance of my kernel config but I did my best to go thru and judge what needed to be enabled and what didn't. lm_sensors is working, my nvidia graphics card works, the onboard ethernet works, my PCI sound card works, all my drives work. In short it works very well, but I cann't comment on SATA since I don't have that. I also have not tried the onboard sound, RAID, or powernow stuff.
I have no webspace but if you would like me to post my config file in this post (and take up 6 million lines) I'd be happy to, just let me know.
As paulisdead said, you don't need the SMP stuff. |

You'd see the lost ticks error in dmesg.
this is the kernel line from my grub.conf that got rid of the lost ticks for me
| Code: | | kernel /2.6.14-rc2 root=/dev/sda3 video=vesa:ywrap,mtrr vga=0x31A pci=biosirq pci=irqroute clock=pmtmr notsc |

| Yeah sorry I'm pretty sure that's just a dual core thing, so don't worry about it. |
