I think this situation for One owners is totally mess.

The One owners have bought a relative expensive product as the One XE is. Then most of the have to stuck with linux and later with an unfinished -quite lovely indeed :-) - Os, but then they get noticed that the hard doesnt go as were supossed to.

Eyetech doesnt make honour the warranty - IMO they will have to solve the problem to every and each one of the One onwners for free of course -

Now some ppl claim there is a workaround relative easy to do, but the owners have to ship worldwide his beloved board to a 3rd party, which voids "warranty" and pay X bucks to get the his Aone working as it was supossed to work when bought...

its totally mess, and at least IMO the fix must be under public domain, because most of users wanna do by themselfs. Anyway, as eyetech doesnt do nothing, the users are under its own right to try.

Just my point of view.

PS: Only clarify that Im not Aone owner

"Considering most XE owners no longer have warranty, this is a good thing(tm) if I may say so myself."

Yeah. They have stopped selling Xe model, so if they waits another while without freeing the fix, all the owners will be out of warranty, and the very eyetech will can ask for some euro for fix the very same mobbos they sold as fully working condition :P

@Lemplee & IKIR

Just let me clarify some things.

Its good for XE users that GGS is offering a fix for the mobbo. Its very good indeed since until now they have to put a SIL card in order to get dma and ethernet at the same time.

But, its really a mess situation that eyetech didnt recongniced the fault before (Im not sure about USBs, but DMA related fault its long known) and take care of the stuff the were selling.

For the record, its a mess that eyetech doesnt honeur the warranty with users, at least with DMA fault since they known it.

I think i didnt missunderstod nothing. Its only my point of view.
