I have been using a A7N8X Deluxe with Debian for about a month now and have been extremely happy with it. One thing to remember is to boot with "noapic nolapic" kernel parameters. Do some googling if you want to know more. I have been using the forcedeth driver for a week now and nothing has broken yet, 3com nic works as expected, and onboard sound is great. I haven't even tried any 2.4 kernels but I am pretty sure it isn't a problem. I too have been using the nvidia video drivers since they first came out and I would not hesitate to recommend virtually any nvidia graphics card for use with linux. It may be binary-only drivers, but that is pretty much what you have to live with to get GLXaccelerated graphics.
Not true. I have a Radeon 9000 Pro, and I get 2500 fps in glxgears with the open source DRI drivers and only 1900 fps with the proprietary ATI driver. Performance across other OpenGL apps follows the same pattern. -Roberto
