Well I got my ASUS CUSL2 MB last night and Linux isn't totally happy with my new MB.  
X wont start do to an AGP problem.  Here is the errors from /var/messages;

12:17:47 localhost kernel: Linux agpgart interface v0.99 (c) Jeff Hartmann

Any ideas on how to track this down?  I'm not using the onboard video, I'm using an 
NVIDIA card.  The MB disables the onboard video when you put in a card in the AGP 
slot.  (Its supposed to).   I'm going to monkey with thebios to see if I can manually 
disable the onboard video just to make sure tha tis not it.
