Re: [LUG] ABIT NF7-SL and Suse 9.0

[Carl Maniglia <carl.maniglia@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The ABIT NF7-SL uses the NVIDIA NForce 2 400 chipset which works is very
Linux friendly (NVIDIA supply the drivers too). You might also want to
look at the ASUS A7NX-E Deluxe which is a similar spec and price but
carries more extra functions than you might ever want to use - and its
blindingly fast.

They also both use Nvidia Soundstorm chips which are supported with
nvidia linux drivers and work fine. Add an NVIDIA graphics card to
either of these boards and you shouldn't encounter any Linux
compatibility problems - I've tested the ASUS with SuSe 9, Fedora core 1
and Knoppix without any hassle.
