I just purchased this mainboard for my next upgrade and I was wondering if anyone else owns it. If so I would appreciate your feedback regarding fedora's support of it...

I am hoping most of it's features will work under fedora for me.

I got this little gem to put into it...

Just a tip don't activate ActiveArmor Firewall in windows as this will effect networking as it is hardware based.

Apart from that I foresee no problem with your hardware working with linux.

Awesome; this will be a fedora only machine and I was just concerned about getting drivers and such.

You may have some issues with the onboard sound card

That would be lame since it is for a media center PC. I want the HD video output to function as well. Would it be best to wait until core7 you think?
