Hi,
I'm looking to buy a VIA cpu + motherboard to run Linux.
Can someone who owns this board please comment on the
chipset (particularily network card) and it's linux compatibility.
A post of your dmesg output would be perfect!
Thanks in advance.

Don't know how good the drivers are, though...
On a more general note, as long as you don't shake it about too much, and
spike protect it, the board itself seems fine from what I've seen (Windows
machines, unfortunately)
