I've had good success with VIA chipsets. I have a VIA K8T800 at work (an
MSI mobo IIRC) and it works like a charm in 2.6 kernels including SATA,
but the one gotcha at this point is the AGP bus isn't recognized. I'm
presuming this will be fixed in a couple of months and since I don't do
much gaming at work it hasn't really bothered me. I have a much more modest Shuttle board at home with a VIA chipset that
has absolutely no trouble in 2.4 or 2.6. As always, bleeding edge means
the possibility for incompatibility. The one at home looks like this:
00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8366/A/7 [Apollo KT266/A/333]
Hmm, a couple people mentioned these Shuttle systems. They look kinda cool. Nice and small, and for some reason I'm getting the idea that they might be quieter than the average system. Are they?
