Hi Gustin :) thank you. I guess I still have to google, searching archives is very hard. I only will report technical issues I know and at the moment I don't know any details for my board. Or I will ask questions, but I still don't know what to ask. I can't say if the style I'll use, if I contact lkml will be the right one or not, right now I simply have nothing to write, but if I get some knowledge, I'll be ready to contact the kernel folks and ASUS. I guess the blame for troubles with mobos belongs to both. On other lists I heard that the lkml people aren't kind. I guess last time I read about this was yesterday on LAD. I wasn't involved, it were 'normal' Linux audio developers who seems to be more the way you recommend that I should be. That's why I can imagine that they are very raw on lkml.

I contacted them because of a phishing mail that was 'good' enough to cheat internet greenhorns, e.g. old people. Has anybody ever heard that people were not able to open an .eml? -- Secret of Tux: http://images.wallaceandgromit.com/user_uploads/forum_thumbnails/5/75/355.jpg "Gromit bit me" says HMV dog: http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2007/03_03/GomitHMVPA_468x319.jpg _______________________________________________ 64studio-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-users
