Works fine with the newer 2.6 Kernel, but had tons of problems on older distros. Mandrake 10.0 auto detected all the hardware, including the onboard ethernet and MCP-T with the Soundstorm features. The Firewire and SATA support is unknown since I don't use the features on this motherboard.

Had just about given up using Linux on a Infinity cause the several older distros I tried did not like the onboard Lan or sound, or even worse would not even install. Now it seems to be very fast and my 1 GB of memory is happily being utilized to the fullest extent which keeps the hard drive access to a mininimum and the responsiveness to the max.
