Sorry it's not x86_64 story. http://www.otukare.org/~hiroki/gentoo/config-a8n-sli-d.txt http://www.otukare.org/~hiroki/gentoo/dmesg-a8n-sli-d.txt http://www.otukare.org/~hiroki/gentoo/lspci-a8n-sli-d.txt
- Asus A8N SLI Deluxe - Athlon64 3500+ -march=athlon-xp, i686-pc-linux-gnu - 4x 512G Samsung pc3200 - onboard SiliconImage 3114 -> WD740 (CONFIG_SCSI_SATA_SIL) - onboard Marvell 88E8001 (CONFIG_SK98LIN) - onboard nVidia ethernet controller (CONFIG_FORCEDETH) - onboard sound (CONFIG_SND_INTEL8X0) - GeForce 6800GT PCIe -> 2x dfp via dvi - usb mouse - kernel 2.6.10 and Xorg 6.8.2 It works fine. Also I try to use 2x 6800GT PCIe video cards - SLI config card is Dual side - No SLI bridge connection - BusID "PCI:1:0:0" and "PCI:2:0:0" for each Device section and no problem. So I imagine SLI mobo isn't bad solution for me why - I hate proprietary binaries -> Xorg's drivers - I want to use modern components -> driver "nv" or "radeon" - I can't live without dual-headed portrait -> driver "nv" However, this environment is too slow to use so I quit portrait in tears.
