FWIW, I just spent a month (on and off, working a few hours here and there) bringing up Linux on a Athlon 900 MHZ processor (ASUS K7V MB) with a new Slackware kernel. Sometimes patience is the key. If you don't have the time to take is step-by-step, it is easy to get into trouble.
The new PNP features and jumperless MBs can be pretty tricky at times. BIOs are getting more complex to configure, etc. So, my recommendation for things to watch out for is 'impatience'.

It's cool that they offer it. But it comes with XP Pro. Change that to XP Home and you save $50. Change that to Linux and it costs the same as XP Home. They are not passing the savings to the consumer. (1 Reply)

INOTIFY_RM_WATCH(2) Linux Programmer's Manual INOTIFY_RM_WATCH(2)
NAME
inotify_rm_watch - remove an existing watch from an inotify instance
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/inotify.h>
int inotify_rm_watch(int fd, int wd);
DESCRIPTION
inotify_rm_watch() removes the watch associated with the watch descriptor wd from the inotify instance associated with the file descriptor

Removing a watch causes an IN_IGNORED event to be generated for this watch descriptor. (See inotify(7).)
RETURN VALUE
On success, inotify_rm_watch() returns zero, or -1 if an error occurred (in which case, errno is set appropriately).
ERRORS
EBADF fd is not a valid file descriptor.
EINVAL The watch descriptor wd is not valid; or fd is not an inotify file descriptor.
VERSIONS
Inotify was merged into the 2.6.13 Linux kernel.
