Hi Group,

I'm considering getting the following ASUS M2V-MX motherboard:

Specifications

    Mfr Part Number: M2V-MX(GREEN)
    CPU: Socket AM2 support AMD Athlon 64 FX/ Athlon 64 X2/ Athlon 64/
    Sempron processor; AMD64 architecture enables simultaneous 32-bit
    and 64-bit computing; AMD Cool 'n' Quiet Technology; FSB 2000MT/s
    Chipset: VIA K8M890 & VT8237A

    ECC/non-ECC, Max capacity 4GB
    Slots: 1x PCI-Express x16 slot; 2x PCI slots
    IDE/SATA: 2x ATA-133 channels, 2x SATA ports support RAID 0, 1 and
    JBOD (VIA VT8237A); 2x SATA2 ports support RAID 0, 1 (JMicron JMB363)

    256MB memory

    I/O jack
    Power Connector: 1x 24pin main power, 1x 4pin CPU power

Knowing that the same Chrome graphics work with SNAP on an ASUS M2V-TVM, 
and I believe the RTL8100C works with eCS OK,  I just wanted to know 
whether the current Uniaud or ALSA work with the ALC883 codec?

Regards,
Mike

P.S. From ill-advisedly purchasing an ASUS M2N-MX SE at the very end of 
a business day (illegal for me to drive with double-vision, so dependent 
upon others for transport) locally [turned out to have a GeForce 6100 
GPU (tried SNAP & Panorama) and an Nvidia PHY 10/100 LAN controller 
(tried nveth) and neither worked with eCS V2.0RC2, and I don't want (and 
can't afford) to use the two PCI-slots for standalone video+NIC] I can 
definitely advise anyone not to get one of those for eCS use! Only Linux 
I could use with it was the just released Linspire 6.0.15 - where 
everything works fine! Xandros Pro 4.1 - Kubuntu64-bit 7.04 no go!
