nForce 590 with Gigabyte GA-M59SLI-S5


Does anyone know if the nForce 590 chipset is supported under the kernel? Or if not, is the 570 chipset supported?

I want to get the Gigabyte GA-M59SLI-S5 motherboard, but I can't find anything about it with Linux support.

I myself have the Asus M2N-SLI DELUXE. Which has the Nforce 570SLI chipset onboard. I'm using SuSe with 2.6.16.21-0.25-default and i have no problems, i've only placed in another sound card because the onboard one wouldn't do hardware mixing.

As for all the other things on the mainboard, they work all out of the box.
