I don't know about in the news, but I have an ASUS mobo in a server, and it's
ethernet sure doesn't work with Linux. I have to use an ethernet PCI-card
for networking. Pesky, but at least the integrated graphics-card hasn't been
biased against 'real' software... I may not have ethernet on the mobo, but
the graphics and sounds works.
