naquaada,

How exactly did you get the nForce LAN port to work without the dreaded freezing issue? I've tried disabling IPv6. I've tried both forcedeth and forcedeth-v, with a variety of kernels under Leo4allv3. I've also tried Zephyroth rev 2, and no success their either. As an aside, I can use the Marvell port, but it's achingly slow.

The nForce port works for 10 seconds or so but maxes out my internet connection, but Marvell maxes out at about 10kb/s when it should be closer to 400!

Any advice?

If I can get LAN working, I just have a nagging video issue (blue screen for 10 mins at boot) and I'll be sorted...

Athlon X2 4200+
Asus A8N32-SLI
BenQ IDE DVD-RW
Maxtor SATA 320GB
Asus HD 3650 512MB (QE/SI enabled, but takes 10-15 mins to boot after I install video drivers)
