I`ve not been able to find any drivers. The only referance i have found to this board is in the 2.5 kernel What i have done in the past is to just buy a cheap sound and put it in untill driver support is avalible.

 

Sorry i`ve not been much use.

What do you mean by parameters?

 

Last time i did a suse install i got to chose the network card and setup the ip/ net mask and then installed.
