I suspect the answer is "No", since the info on eVGA's Website loudly proclaims "Requires Microsoft Media Center Edition 2005 (will not work with any other version of Microsoft Windows)" and "Designed for Windows XP". Generally, with that level of tie-in, even if they are using a chipset that is supported by a Linux driver, there is Microsoft-specific firmware involved. However, this is still speculation, so if someone out there knows how to make it work, sing out! -- WOW!
