MSI GF615M-P33
Mark: Very good Msg 2:
Tested with eCS 2.0 rc7 silver. Video works with Panorama, audio works with uniaud, ethernet works with nickk's nvidia driver.
Msg 1:
I got tired of my old slow system, so I decided to upgrade. Yesterday, I went to my
local Fry's electronics store and bought some current hardware that the guy there
recommended off the shelf: a case, a power supply, a motherboard (MSI GF615M-P33,
contains NVIDIA Geforce 6150SE, nForce 439 chipset, with integrated video, network,
HD audio, USB, IDE, SATA, RAID, Floppy, parallel port, and serial port), a processor
(3.0ghz dual core AMD Athlon II), a couple of gigs of memory, and a 500gb SATA disk.
Total cost US$300. (I already had a CD/DVD drive.) There was no reason for picking
these particular parts, other than I wanted a motherboard with everything integrated, and
I wanted a serial port. I didn't do any prior research, I just bought what the guy gave me.
Also, I don't really need a 500gb disk, but the 320gb disk was the same price as the
500gb disk, so why not.
I brought the parts home, assembled them, popped my eCS 2.0 silver CD in the drive
and booted it up using all the default settings in the BIOS, and the default settings
on the eCS CD. I partitioned my disk and installed eCS. The installer chose the
Panorama video driver, but didn't select any audio device, and couldn't find the
ethernet controller. So I manually selected uniaud, and "No Adapter" for the network,
knowing it is trivial to add a network driver later. The install finished in about 15 minutes
with no errors. The system boots and plays the startup music, the video works great at
1280x1024 the maximum resolution of my "test" monitor, and I installed nickk's NVIDIA
network driver and the network works fine, too. As near as I can tell everything works.
Total time from bringing the parts home to a running eCS system: about 1 hour.
Still to do: Configure the video for my 1920x1080 display, test the audio further, get the
second CPU working, and move all my data. The installer installed the SMP kernel, but
only one CPU is running. Probably because I didn't do the ACPI wizard thing yet.

eCo Software is working with the translators
of eComStation / IBM OS/2 Warp since the end of 90-th.
We have released russian version of
some Fixpaks for Warp 4, eComStation 1.05, .. 2.1.
LANGE library, co-operation with european translators.
