For the most part, it's just an x86. However, you should run I think it's
2.2.12 minimum, maybe it's 2.2.13, but around that anyway. Devel kernels
from 2.3.30 on should be ok to. There's just a little funky stuff to get
the chip to really sing that's in those kernels. You should go to deja and
search the news groups archives. A friend of mine is really happy with his
Athlon 550. There's all kinds of tuning that you can do such as mtrr to
speed up video, 3Now!, IDE params, etc....
