SiS190.x driver got a bug on 64bit Linux kernel with 4GB RAM.
NIC can get IP via DHCP correctly but can not have any traffic any more...Orz
If you limit RAM size while bootup to "mem=3G", everything works fine ( Of course......XD ).
See this for bugzilla report: here.
I test the patch on Mandriva 2009.1 and it works.
But I never test it on Ubuntu or any other distro yet.
Here is the duplicated issue on launchpad for Ubuntu.
CM Linux is a small distro which is based and modified from Mandriva Linux......囧rz

clevo_laptop v1.0.0 is released
Finally, I uploaded the first release of Clevo ACPI WMI Linux kernel driver module to Sourceforge.net.
The release is clevo_laptop_1.0.0.tar.gz.
After a long time investigating of BIOS ASL code, I found so many bugs and NGs on their laptops.
For the ACPI supportinf about Linux.
Even I have told them, the BIOS engineers, no body gives a shit about my opinion........
Will keep developing this kernel module to support Linux on Clevo platform as much as possible.
('Cauz BIOS guys don't want to pay efforts to Linux, this is not listed in their spec........)
