I also got the Intel 810E motherboard with a 550E cpu, ASUS CUW-RM
I can install the VGA drive.
I just download the driver and follow the document in Intel web page.
http://support.intel.com/support/graphics/intel810/linuxsoftware.htm
However this drive does not include the Audio driver for 810E AC97 audio!!!
Anyone know how to config it?
