socket 939 AMD 64 motherboard w/ linux support
This is a discussion about socket 939 AMD 64 motherboard w/ linux support in the Linux Hardware category; Can anyone recommend a main board (socket 939, AMD64) w/ linux support. Preferably a cheaper board w/ onboard video, audio, and lan. I orginally bought 2 Asus A8V-MX's but there is no support for the VIA southbridge chipset.

I run an ASUS A8N-SLI with a n AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+ and have had zero problems.

OP
Thanks, but that board's ~$120 w/ no onboard video. My boss is too cheap to go for that. The one I got was ~$65...of course it doesn't have drivers yet, but I'm looking more in that price range.

Uh so what kind of video card does this guy want?
