Hi,
I picked up your input to the motherboards thread and wondered
how you got everything to work using your K7S5A board.
I haven't got the plug and lead for the onboard video and bought
an nvidia Geforce2 mx 200 card. this works but above 800x600
the display is bigger than the screen area. which
damn, just about any _old_ board, better if you can find one without onboard
anything.

If I were to put together a budget box, that could still run Linux, and
be useable, what mobos would you experts recommend?

Mandrake Forum ran a poll last week that showed that about 60% of those
responding use some kind of AMD CPU; only about 35% use Intel (Macs and
others accounted for the rest). Evidently Linuxers aren't impressed by those
little blue critters in the Intel TV ads.

AMD is the way to go. They do as much, if not more then lower end P4s. They're also,

I would have to agree, I have the Asus A7V133, with a 1.4GHz Athlon, and
it cost almost half of what a comparable P4 would have. I stayed away
from the A7V266, when I was looking in the summer time, the chipset was
1st generation and had some problems.
The new Athlon XP's are the same form facto

Someone can flame me for this, but all the benchmarks show the 1.2
