Are you using it exclusively on server-class machines?
Personally, the closest I've come to it not working on a desktop is it
not having support for the AC '97 sound chipset, which I had to build a
module for. Admittedly, most of what I put it on would generally lean
towards good compatability in any case (lots of intel and
not-quite-cutting-edge NVidia).
If I'm installing a server, it'll generally get Debian.
