| i plan on upgrading soon, but I haven't seen anyone post anything about it here. I don't want to assume that means there are no issues. Anybody running Gentoo on it? |

yes I am, works perfectly after patching the kernel...

Ah right.....this could be err interesting.  hmm wonder if i could rebuild the liveCD with a patched 2.6.1 kernel... |

I tried but was unable *sigh*:
Here is what I did:
Get Linux 32 Bit on an IDE HDD.
Boot with AMD64 Live-CD, unpack Stage 3 Tarball somewhere in a temp directory on the IDE HDD.
Chroot in the stage 3 tarball system and emerge mm-sources.
Patch these sources with the SiI 3512 Patch (see above, you need to fix it manually to aplly cleanly against 2.6.1-mm4).
Configure & compile the kernel (enable IA32 Emulation, and the reverse engineered nForce ethernet driver).
Put the kernel in the boot-partition on the IDE-HDD and boot the 32 Bit Linux.
Then follow the installation guide as you have now access to the SATA-Disk.

This is interesting I was looking the other day to see if Gentoo supported the AMD64, but didn't find anything, so I assumed it didn't. Where is the Live CD iso?

Ive got the SN85G4 with a A643200+ 1 MB cache, and
I had a hell of a time getting Gentoo
on it. After patching sata_sil I got stuck
with lost interrupt for hde no matter what I did.
It even went so far that I suspected hw
failure, so I tried installing Windows.
Since it worked, I went back and connected
another HD and installed gentoo on this.
After *ALOT* of trying and failing, I found
out that I could not enable local APIC
in the kernel - after I removed it, I no longer got
lost interrupt.
Im now installing and typing this in lynx.
So far so good...

how noisy is this little shuttle?
the previous versions were too noisy (like 50dB)
also, I hear the sata silicon image driver is not too crash hot yet, and it was suggested in kernel 2.6.1 to use the ata driver.
have you tried the latest mm-sources? they have quite a few silicon image patches, inc patches for seagate drives.
cheers

2.6.2-mm1 here, had to patch them to work.
about the noise... Can't tell you how much DB(A), but it's pretty loud when the fan is at full rpm, but you can switch it to smart mode, where it's at least as silent as the HDD's noise is louder than the fan's...

ive got one of these shuttle boxes - ive got it working - with sata aswell. Ive got a problem with Xwindows tho. X windows will start, show the nvidia logo, then show the desktop for about a second after which the screen scrambles and the machine locks up.
ive already set the NvAGP option to 2 and ive tried 1 as well
The graphics card is an Nvidia GeforceFX 5700
ne one got ne ideas? which graphcis cards are u guys using with ur amd64 shuttle xps?
*UPDATE*
I used the latest drivers from nvidia (5332) they work like a dream, glx works as well with insanely high frame rates!! yey! |

What module beside agpgart are you using to enable AGP? I cant figure out what module to use. Ive tried both amd64_agp and nvidia_agp and none works.

for nforce3 it will probably also be nvidia, but I would say that atm there is probably no agp driver supporting nforce3, only nforce2 - hence why nvidia is not working for you.
but I don't know for sure.
perhaps mm-sources will have something better?

Im using 2.6.2-rc1-mm2 right now, and using agpgart and nvidia_agp I get the following from my dmesg:
| Code: |
Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones
agpgart: Detected an NVIDIA nForce/nForce2 chipset, but could not find the secondary devices.
|
Apparantly it has found the correct chipset, but cant seem to understand whats connected to it. I have an ATI 9200SE, and neither the ati-drivers or the agp part work on the card. Have to use XFree4.3.99.902 to get X up, and then X is using its own driver for the 9200SE I think.

ok, then i would assume that the nvidia driver does not support nforce3 yet.
check around the forum to see if there is an agp driver for nforce3, there may be a beta driver somewhere that you can patch in manually and try..

Ive found a patch from a nvidia employee from november 2003, which support nforce3 - BUT: as far as I can see it seems like the nforce1/2/3 architecture is unified so the kernel devs try to make one unified driver for them all - which in fact is the nvidia_agp module. It does indeed support nforce3, although it says it only support nforce1/2. Much of the code from the patch is the same, and much is different.
/me slaps myself for buying an ATI card...

I don't think your ATI card is the problem.
the ago is a seperate issue.
u can be running a PCI vga card and still isntall the nvidia agp driver.
but I'm not sure what supports what.. so I prob can't help you much more
