I absolutely agree that it should all just work.  The reason for my playful
jab about the serial port is that I recommended the Intel board exactly
because of the Realtek chip on the GigaByte board, but then you bought the
GigaByte board anyway, against my recommendation.  At that time I don't
recall you mentioning needing a serial port.  Maybe I have you confused with
another OP here.  If so, my apologies.
