I bought an Asus A8N-E, which is nForce4 based, for my Athlon 64 X2 rig. I've had no problems with it at all under Ubuntu. The only thing I haven't tried is the on-board ethernet (my network is wireless), but it is detected, so I imagine it should work (the NIC on my A7N8X worked fine). At $109, it was a good deal. -- Adam Wolfe Gordon _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
