Hi Bjorn, Yes, I have tried "Linux" from the BIOS setup. As for 5.5, yes it would probably work but the 5 series will not get any further in development and there are things done for 6- and -current that I would like to benefit from. Seems like the only solution is running single processor... kama wrote: > Have you used "Linux" as the OS configuration in the bios? > > I had to switch from "Other" to "Linux" to get SMP to work properly. > > Also try to use 5.x to see if it runs better.
