I've got Etch working on this machine. Fast, solid and pretty (kde
3.5). Amazing, given the screwed up BIOS - american megatrends, you
should be ashamed! Asus, my next motherboard is going to be - another
brand. The Asus A8N-VM CSM bios is a real mess. Why not just fix it?

Kudos to Debian and the kernel developer guys. Very good work.
