    The only driver that I'm aware of for it is on Gigabyte's driver site for that
    mobo:
    http://tw.giga-byte.com/Motherboard/Support/Driver/Driver_GA-7N400%20Pro.htm

    However there are a couple of problems with that driver:
     - Gigabyte doesn't mention SuSE as one of the systems that it can be used on
     - The driver is only available from them in a self-extracting zip file (e.g.
    it's a windows EXE file)
     - As I recall from the last I looked T it; the driver Gigabyte has is
    precompiled for specific kernels which may not be the kernel you're running.

    I can't remember what chipset the RAID function uses on that mobo off the top
    of my head, but you'd probably have better luck searching around for a driver
    for it from another site.
