It is either a DOA motherboard OR the memory mapping is causing problems..
Did you ever make any more progress on this? I don't have any ideas;
just wondering whether you learned anything.
I swapped the motherboard with the ASUS and all problems have disappeared.
Someone else e-mailed me with a similar issue (freeze/hang/etc) with a
similar motherboard (but UDP3 instead of 5 I believe) and they could not
find a solution either, they were trying to install Fedora.
Huh. You started with a Gigabyte board, IIRC, and replaced it with
an ASUS, so we can't tell if you just had a defective Gigabyte board,
or if there's something we need to fix in Linux.
The other poster with a similar board and similar symptoms sounds
interesting, though. You don't have a pointer to a bugzilla or
email discussion, do you?

Hi,
I have cc'd him on this thread.
His board = GA-770TA-UD3
My board = GA-MA790FXT-UD5P

Hello,
Did you ever fix that Gigabyte board with the address space collision? I'm
have a similar problem with a GA-770TA-UD3 board using Fedora 12. (It kept
hanging on install, and after install it randomly locks up after a few
hours.) Currently I'm rerunning hardware tests. If it passes, I'm going to
try an older kernel and then Ubuntu. If it fails that I'm going to send the
board back to Newegg.
Thanks,
Chris
Hi,
Got rid of that board, I spent ~7-14 days on it, doing everything
imaginable, I have been using linux since ~1996 on my own hardware, ran
out of ideas, got a new ASUS board, no more problems.
Intel Gigabyte boards seem to be OK.
AMD ones, of this type, not so sure.
Please let me know when you end up finding!
You should run:
1. memtest first (make sure it passes, grab the system rescue cd)
2. run stress on it, etc
Justin.
