(I just bought a ASUS A7V / AMD box a few weeks ago)
I don't know what the problem here is either. I haven't had the time
to figure this one out yet (I don't think that I'm going to have time
to track this down either, not for quite a while).
Red Hat 6.2 gave me the problem that you describe; Mandrake 7 worked.
I don't recall which kernel revision I'm running at home right now.
I hope this helps,
