Here's something of a dumb question: apparently the high-end Dell and HP server systems use this same chipset and motherboard, and they can be bought from dell/hp pre-configured with linux (RHEL4, i believe). do dell and HP do their own patches to the kernel for this stuff, or is it simply that these machines have BIOS and so linux can use the 'built in' drivers for these problematic devices? so far these kind of issues have stopped me, and a friend at another company, from buying mac pros to run linux-based chip cad tools. thanks, rob |
