Menotti Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Hi all, Newbie OSX86er here, have a quick question about a lockup I'm experiencing with Kalyway 10.5.2 I'm currently using an AMD X2 with a Biostar TForce550 motherboard. I was experiencing lockups when using the on board gigabit adapter under heavy load (torrents, etc). I disabled that device on board and purchased a Netgear GA311 (as it is a realtek reference that is supposedly compatible). However, I am still experiencing lockups even when using this card. Any suggestions? When I am installing off of the Kalyway disc, should I just be selecting 1 ethernet driver, even though 4 are selected by default? Are there any additional things I need to do for the nForce550 chip? Thanks a bunch in advance!

wahwahman89 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Erm, 1) why are you using Kalyway for an AMD chip? 2) why are you installing more than one driver? Find out which NIC you have and just install one driver - the right one. Things go f***y otherwise.

Menotti Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 I was using Kalyway because it said that it had AMD support. I use the legacy switch and the other AMD switch/ Is there a better distro for AMD users?
