I AM an advocate of "suck it and see" when it comes to trialling/manipulating software - somewhat warier when hacking firmware <g> I write this from a valid (read=accomplished) pedestal, namely: linux 2.4.16-k6 kernel Xfree 4.2 0pera6.11 as I...

<QT> Have you flashed the latest BIOS from Abit? </QT> No. I HAVE asked ABIT to adjudicate - they refuse to answer. I HAVE asked JATON their advice/recomm. re this update.
