The label of 'No' for working under linux is a little misleading. Everything works (except maybe the sound card... I haven't tried it or researched it as I have an SB Audigy) except for the AGP northbridge. Currently the AGP northbridge is only supported under the 2.5.x series of kernel because the P4PB Ultra runs under an AGP 3.0 (8x) format... register sizes are different and the 2.4.x series kernel does not yet support the AGP 3.0 spec. Otherwise the board is great.

Note: it might *MIGHT* work if you have a video card that will force the board to reduce to 4x agp. but there's no where in the bios to set the board to agp 4x. :(

Ok good news... some modules have been hacked and it is now possible to obtain AGP 8x under a 2.4.x series kernel. The P4X400 chipset is now supported.
