Using the EHCI USB 2 drivers, I found linux will completely hang when attempting to use an external USB 2 cd writer (which works perfectly under USB 1.1).
Sound OK (C-Media)
Unable to get the Onboard Bluetooth to work (think this is unsupported at present)
Haven't tried using the onboard RAID controller either due to lack of SATA drives. lspci : 00:0d.0 RAID bus controller: Promise Technology, Inc.: Unknown device 3376 (rev 02).

SATA controller is a Promise 20376 controller.
Sempron works despite what it says here
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_cpu_support_detail.php?UID=356&kind=1
I have a Sempron 2600 which has been running OK in this motherboard for 2 months. All you need to do is manually set the FSB speed and multiplier in the BIOS and it just works.
You'd think MSI would put that on their web site... no wait a minute thats one motherboard sale lost isn't it ;-)
