Some feature. :( On this asus M2N SLI Deluxe board, I don't recall ever
having a spontaneous reboot.

Another germane question then is why has not this asus_atk110 driver
mentioned, and which I believe may be loaded right now in -rc5,(yes) been
fixed?

From remarks I have seen go by on this list, I have gathered that there seems
to have taken place, a bit of a spat between asus and linux, and that until
asus gets a better attitude, asus related problems will be ignored. That's
fine, but at the same time, I would have appreciated being made more
obviously aware of it _before_ I spent nearly $300 USD on what I thought was
a decent motherboard. This disagreement wasn't so obvious a year ago when I
built this box as it is now. I would not repeat a box build using this
motherboard today.

Thanks, Zeev.
