Well, I don't know about motherboards, but as for chipsets-- avoid any 
and all SiS chips.  I have the SiS 730s chipset in my computer, and the 
graphics chips sort of work (the driver is somewhat  mismatched-- I have 
to deal with perpetual, severe pincushion distortion), but the sound 
doesn't work *at all* and Linux can't find my fan & temperature sensors 
(they work-- I've checked the BIOS numerous times to make sure).  Take 
it from me, SiS chips are just worthless; avoid them like the plague :(
