I can confirm the same errors on a Supermicro board, with the only "change" being the extremely regrettable click on the "upgrade" button.

Two Xeon 5400's, 4 gb ram, disconnected several bits of hardware that worked great before that, found threads leading here and began to sigh and despair.

With so much progress over so many years, it's things like this that have kept me from converting even a single other person to linux. They'd call me, and I'm stumped -- even if there is a successful kernel patch, how could those of us crashing quickly ever even install it?

Many thanks.
