Look at this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131014
that shows 156 reviewers with Linux comments that vary between some 
problems and great.

My current strategy for buying a new board is:
search NewEgg for top sellers + positive Linux comment.
Then order it when I am about to slip across the border.
