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.
I have an MSI K9MM-V MoBo in my CentOS 6.2 box. While I had F12/F13 on it I had issues with the HD on the IDE port disappearing at random intervals. To get the drive back I had to reboot the machine.
I don't know if this behavior is still the same with CentOS 6.2 because I eventually removed the IDE drive.
The built in sound card has line and microphone inputs. I've never been able to get the line input to work. The microphone input did work for a short while. I was never able to make it work again after the first few days.
As for Gigabyte Mobos and Gigabyte's Hybrid EFI in connection to Linux you might want to read this web site:
