But the A7M266-D doesn't use a Via chipset.  
>From http://usa.asus.com/mb/socketa/a7m266-d/overview.htm :
"The A7M266-D leverages the technology of the AMD 760MPX chipset"

A quick google, and the *first* URL shown on the query:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=linux+amd+760mpx+dma&btnG=Google+Search
is....
