I am not interested in your little stories at all. I care about the
facts. The fact here is: a VIA southbridge is not supported by the Linux
kernel. Your conclusion is: don't buy ASUS hardware. THAT'S SIMPLY AN
ABSURD CONCLUSION. You're misusing this thread to bash ASUS, your other
statements show this as well ("especially with so many better
brands available today", etc.). So please stop it! This is not helpful.
Other manufacturers use also VIA southbridges, so the OP would face the
same problems even if he bought another brand. Do you want to bash now
all of these companies? *sic*
