My questions: It has the Intel 915P chipset. Does it work with the current Linux kernel? It has also SATA with ICH6R chiptset. The SATA Linux status report page says: " "looks like ICH5" support available in ata_piix ". What does that mean? Does it work or not? It has also PCI Express slots. Is there any support needed from the software or is this a hardware thing and works out of the box?
