Hi rudolf, thanks a lot for your quick reply - and for clearing me up 
about the chip hidden
in the mulriplexor.

BIOS is already version 1005,  which is the latest - and presumably 
greatest - according to ASUS
download pages.  Looks like we need your ASUS contact anyway...

Well, I am not sure of the significance of this. Probably the system 
will just look in the  normal library
path (such as /usr/local/lib) if it cannot find the libraries in 
/usr/lib64. Will try to figure that out from here.

Going on standby till you get the news from ASUS - tnx again !
