I would also be interested if anyone knows how to do this. Im sure that if i run windows for a bit i could get a logo into my bios but i am not currently dual booting and i dont plan on installing windows for a long time. I don't really feel like running it in wine since it is bios level and i dont want to be mucking with it from any sort of emulated environment.

You might try checking at dells website. They use to run a lot of asus motherboards (do not know if they still do) and they now support Debian (at least I think it is Debian).

Couldnt find much there about Ausu MyLogo. Dell supports Ubuntu in their linux line of computers. I dont think I have ever seen an asus motherboard in a dell though. They often have their own mother boards which are rebranded of course but changed enough so that something like asus mylogo wouldnt work.

Ya, it is hard to remember who is running what destro. The asus eee started with xandros(?) on the smaller machines but now has debian listed on their source page. You might look there as well. At any rate linux is linux and you could always get the source. It may not be called mylogo but maybe bios editor or something similar.
