Hi! I'm planning to buy a ASUS mainboard with the following chipset: Chipset VIA K8T800Pro and VIA VT8237
It's the A8V-Deluxe Does anyone know if this MB has problems with Linux (or the other way?) Before I had the P5RD1-Deluxe (Intel CPU) but it was too hot (noisy) because I needed 550Watts to make it stable. It had the same Soundchip like A8V-Deluxe (Realtek ALC861) which didn't work because of the ALi controller. Is this different here? Does the Intel HDA audio driver work with A8V-Deluxe? Are VIA chipsets in general OK for Linux or do they suck for some reason? Does anyone OWN this MB already? I WANT an Athlon64 3200+! Maybe there is a better MB available? ANY comment is highly appreciated! Thanks a lot, Dirk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
