The mixed GPU machine is on Win7-64. Have another 790FX board running 2 NVidia cards in XP64. Some are running mixed cards in XP but say it's more hassle to set up. As I understand it, it's nearly impossible in Vista (but why anyone would want to run Vista is beyond me). Haven't tried it in Linux either so can't be of help there.
