I have a working system based in this motherboard working with LinuxMCE 7.10 RC2. Installation DVD worked fine on this board. Only issue I had was that the sound was skipping while music playback. Solved this by changing the audio driver used (only using stereo sound currently) Onboard audo chipset is Realtek ALC650 codec

System:

Motherboard: ASUS A7V8X graphic adapter: ASUS V8420 (NVIDIA driver update needed) memory: 768 MB Network: on board

I solved the audio problem by changing the audio driver used in the xine.conf file in /etc/pluto.

was:

# audio driver to use
# { auto  null  alsa  oss  arts  esd  none  file }, default: 0
audio.driver:auto

changed into:

# audio driver to use
# { auto  null  alsa  oss  arts  esd  none  file }, default: 0
audio.driver:oss
