If you've read the previous thread about the via chipset bug, you'll know
which boards to avoid (with the via686b southbridge).
I also remember the case with a specific type of motherboard (was it asus?)
that was said to be linux incompatible at the time it came out, but I'm sure
it's solved now.
It's recommended that you check out hardware sites and read about the specific
motherboard you want to buy. At least that's what I do after having spent
money on useless (under linux at least) hardware a few times.
