The box has an nVidia MCP51 motherboard, and there are problems with
sound and the network card. The sound card (snd_hda_intel driver does
not work. The network card has some glitches that are fixed in the
forcedeth driver at version 0.54 and above, whereas we are stuck at
0.48 on LTS 6.06. I've been told by nVidia personnel that the only
kernel that is likely to make all the components of this board operate
is the very latest experimental Fedora Core 5 kernel. The same nVidia
personnel mutter about the rather mouldy version of the nViidia video
drivers offered by LTS 6.06.
I can't speak for the rest, but why don't you just download the nVidia
video drivers and Forceware drivers from nVidia's website and install them?
