 All works. The internal Smart Card reader if you have one does not works. Is recognized in Hardrake but not able to work. The modem does not work and I have not tested since I have no use for modems. The NIC and WIFI works right of the bat. The WiFi internal card that I highly recomend is the Intel WiFi Card it used the ipw 2200 driver. Avoid the Broadcom WiFi card only works on G networks, even on MS still a pain to ron on B networks. Anyway, Linuxant driver loader did the trick for the Broadcom card. The Intel Card will work right out the box on Mandriva with the kernel-i586-up-1GB-2.6.12.22mdk Any other things all works right away, no config need it.

 It has a BT chipset, can not remember the numberr right now. It has an Infrared remote that does not work with Linux. I just do not know how to make it to work. The card also has a Radio Tuner that I do not know how to make it to work neither, I have not found an application that works a radio. However, Xawtv and Zapping works excellent, better than the WinTV 2000 M$ softare. On Windows it shows a small noise line across the top of the screen on some channels. On Linux there is none and the Picture is much clear and crisp. The Card was detected during install no extra settings need it. All keyboard commads works. I have a video capture card for a web cam, it has the same chipset at the Hauppauge TV tuner card. Did not worked one or the other when placed together, neither with M$. This 2 cards does no play well together, avoidance is a must, M$ will not boot BOSD and Mandrake will boot but just does not work at all.

 I installed Knoppix, Red Hat 8.0, Mandrake 9.1 All works detected right at install, USB, NIC, Audio, Hauppauge Wint TV card, nVidia GeForce MX 440, CD Burner, DVD Reader, 2 IDE HDD (20GB). No complaints worked just like the ECS K7S5A pro, a beauty to install. Very painless Linux install, highly recomended. The MoBo is not overclocked and has factory BIOS. Side Note. Had problems installing W2K on it, after initial setup, install the AGP driver and will work or otherwise, will not reboot it will BSOD.
