I use the same mother board you do. All the hardware on the board I've
tried to use works (which means I have no idea about the smart card
reader). The built in ethernet is supported with the via-rhine module,
the sound is supported via cmpci. The serial and parallel ports work
out of the box.
I disabled acpi, and apm does the job of powering on/off correctly and
the BIOS will automatically restart after a powerfailure
correctly. lm_sensors took a little work, but the sensors now work
fine. I used a USB keyboard and mouse so that works too (hotplug with
the usb-uhci driver).
I'm running 2.4.18-k7 and a stock Woody r1 system.
Best regards,
Shyamal
