[ubuntu-uk] Motherboard bundle?

2010-12-31 Thread alan c 
I want to buy a motherboard bundle which will work ok with Ubuntu. My 
aim is low to mid range functionality/price.


Recent experience and current availability will be of greatest interest.

The onboard graphics may be the biggest uncertainty. Almost all the 
searches I have done suggest some problems  for recent ubuntu 
releases, but of course the difficulties get posted, good news not so 
frequently.


Will appreciate comments and experiences

If it's any help, the:
ASUS® M4A78LT-M: mATX MAINBOARD, DDR3, USB 2.0, SATA 3.0Gb/s
is 100% compatible in all senses.  May be a bit upmarket for your
purposes?  I'm using it with an AMD Athlon II quad core at 3GiHz

You do need the proprietary video driver, but it works out of the box.
