I've opened a case at ASUS, those of you experiencing these
problems can request that number directly. I don't want it
to be a broadcast on the list.
ASUS is interested as they advertise SUSE LINUX
compatibility. They are testing the problem now trying to
confirm. They should have a little more 'juice' with
SUSE/Novell.
Still, outside of the update problem, the problem of have
to install using the Safe Settings is an issue as well.
Given ide=nodma and acpi=off, performance and features are
being negated.
