Appears to work fine for me on my K8V Deluxe and K8V SE Deluxe..

anyway, i have a gigabyte X48 DQ6 board.

the two realtek NIC's initially had problems, but fixes have been merged
and it works excellent. Audio works(not the two separate channels for
front), usb works, sensors work, ahci on both the jmicron and ICH works.
pata_jmicron works aswell.
