Yeah - loads. The graphics is lightly hardware accelerated under XF87
4.0.2, and if you want sound, you need to add "options i810_audio
clocking=41194" to the modules.conf (or it sounds funny). You really need
a 2.4 kernel for this motherboard. You can pass hdparm "-X69" to get
proper hard disk performance on UDMA100 drives.
