1. Linux. Alright, the GPU seems to be a PITA but I was going to run it headless anyway, so does everything else work flawlessy and with open source drivers? Ethernet? SATA? Can you read temperature with lmsensors? USB - yes SATA - yes Ethernet - yes (tried on ubuntu 8.4 beta only, but 7.10 dmesg s...

Please specify which dual riser card exactly you are using.

It is an active riser. "VIA EXT-PCIG rev B" is written on the board. I purchased it here, it is said to be configured for this motherboard specifically.

Not sure if it will work for the desktop version too, haven't tried that personally, but I think it will. Hope it helps. ...

Funny little board. I have it running with a picoPSU-120-WI25V and a Nexus 80mm fan. I admit, I could not handle the thrill running it at 75+ degrees even without case. :lol: Perhaps you can help me with the following questions: 1. Dual riser? I found one on the web and wondered if it is not too goo...
