Hi.  I remember when the AMD/AGP issues with Linux were first being 
reported, you guys had some of the most comprehensive info on your site. 
 Lately, I haven't seen very much info about it... although I have seen 
several people commenting online recently that they have been using 
Linux on recently  built AMD systems with no problems.  Since I am 
considering putting together an AMD system pretty soon, I am curious 
about how the situation stands at this point.  Can you please tell me if 
there is a new kernel version that addresses the problem?  Also, if not, 
does it help at all if you compile the kernel specifically on an AMD 
processor?  (I'm guessing not, but it's nice to hope).

Thanks for any info you can pass along.

Greg Frank
