No and no.

Asus A7V600 (KT600, VIA 8237 chipset). The sound chip on the
motherboard is from Analog Devices, Inc., AD-1980, AC97 codec,
and Mandrake assigns the snd-via82xx alsa driver to it. This
works very well for everything but aRts, which is sometimes a
little 'scratchy' for system notification sounds (which I don't
use anyhow).
append=" mem=nopentium devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi acpi=ht"
I have a Asus GeF4, but use the XFree86 'nv' driver, so I
don't really need 'mem=nopentium' in the append. Chas A Edwards
just finally convinced me it can't hurt ;) I don't really need
to disable ACPI, but since I don't use it, and Mandrake always
adds acpi=ht, I leave it in too. Same append I've used for a long
time, many kernels. I'll probly try 2.4.23-1mdk that is on the
mirrors today. FWIW, the onboard NIC is a 3C-940, and I read so
many bad reports, problems with the drivers that are used for it
(3c2000, sk98lin) I just disabled it in bios an use an old D-Link
NIC I had (8139too).
