Hi ppl

OK. Well that was a rollercoaster few days but I think I might be
getting back on track. Now about this bloody Linux installation, what
thoughts you about buying this:

<http://uk.giga-byte.com/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=1883&ModelName=GA-K8N%20Pro-SLI>

Is nvidia the one that works?

Hmm, that red message at the bottom of
<http://uk.giga-byte.com/Products/Motherboard/Products_Spec.aspx?ClassValue=Motherboard&ProductID=1883&ProductName=GA-K8N%20Pro-SLI>
doesn't look too good. What do we think that means? That's kinda
worrying .. am I going to get to a place where I can't boot the thing
up and don't know how to install the driver?

The CPU is an AMD Athlon 64 3500+ 2200MHz. The above board is in the
PC Pro A List.
