No experience here, and it's not supported out of the box. However, as the chipset (GX2 northbridge and CS5535 southbridge, I think) is already supported, it shouldn't be too much work. I see one problem, namely that the ROM/BIOS chip is soldered on to the board (and not in a socket), according to http://www.enicomms.com/decTOP/DSCF1154.JPG This will require some soldering (desolder the chip, solder on a socket), so that you are able to insert a backup ROM chip in case of problems with flashing (and for testing during development). If you want to give this a try, please send us more information, lspci -nnn, lspci -vvv, lspnp -v (note: 'lspnp'. not lspci this time).
