Hi all, I am wondering what motherboards users are using on there Linux box? I had a Asus m4a79t delux but in corroded under 2 years and failed. Asus blames the customer oxidation and will not give warranty even though it has 3 years warranty. Strange how a old p5 Intel machine beside it is perfectly fine. Asus warranty not worth the paper its written on. Have a Asus crosshair V formula that spent more times being repaired than been used. It still comes up with eprom errors on boot and runs like a dog and Asus will not give money back as they say they do not support Linux. So we have proved that this brand is crap, what else is there? Am looking at the Gigabyte ga-990fxa-d3, does this board play well with Linux as looking at putting it in what was the m4a79t box. Thanks Gary.
Not sure which motherboard my laptop has, (Gateway T-Series T6321 model!) but it's already been through installations of Linux MInt, PearOS, Ubuntu, and CEntOS, until I finally decided upon Fedora, and I haven't had any problems since, and this is a used laptop whom the owner was just going to throw away! Now it's my number one machine! (out of three!) So maybe there's some trught in what you say, a friend of mine HAD a newer Asus laptop he got from WalMart, and after the first 7 months it went belly up for (strangely enough!) a power issue!
