Do you know if there is a 2.6.x rpm for SuSE 9.0?
Nothing current, unfortunately. :-( Not too many distros officially supporting 2.6 yet. ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/SuSE-Linux/i386/9.0/unsorted/kernel-2.6/ These are some 2.6.0-test5 RPMs. Frankly, I wouldn't bother with them since there have been so many significant changes/upates in the 2.6 series. > > > On that note, which nForce board do you have?
