despite keybd issue on first board, and keybd light issue on second mb, the mb was quite stable, and loaded most distros w/ o a problem, realtek 8100C lan used 8139 driver ok, no audio. used mostly as a distributed computing platform, and works quite well in that respect- though i wouldn't feel right in recommending it, as there are too many problems that reflect a poor QC program. what do you expect from a mb that is basically used in e- machines (keeps the e- machines rep going strong?). no overclocking w/ fsb jumper setting.
good linux compatability, except for sound, keybd issues are the reason to drop it's rating, as the mb really should be avoided (unless they'll take $10/mb for a dc farm- has an integrated boot rom that is selectable in bios- haven't used it yet).
NOTE: seeing that my motherboard entry/ description is more of a review than a list of features- i apologize. rear connectors are: 4X usb2.0, integrated video connector (km266m), serial, and parallel connectors, realtek 8100BL integrated lan connector, audio connectors-
