thanks for the link but hmmm... those in that page don't look like
"success" to me.

"GeForce 8200 motherboard. They seem problematic under linux"

"GeForce 9300,... other negative issues are 2D related performance
problems with the current stable Nvidia driver (there's a thread about
this problem) even when applying all the quick fixes"

"gygabyte mobo.. drivers 180.16 and instability problem + resolution not
yet correct/optimal"

I can live without 5.1 or other hi-fi sound, but I do need stable, perfect
2D graphics. If this is the status, this chipset doesn't look good for me.

Further info and experiences are welcome, of course.
