I have been looking for resources to evaluate two motherboards, for my main system, where stable is the main feature / requirement, and quality audio output next, performance / cutting edge features are a distant third.
ASUS A7S333-WA with a 1800+ V.S. ASUS A7V8X-X something faster. These motherboards alone are priced around $100.00 Canadian, my spending limit. How would you compare these two for use with Debian. I have searched the archives using google, with the keywords debian and "model-#". The lucky board will be very Microsoft Windows(TM) free. It has been suggested that I look at the "chip sets" and see if they are supported in the Debian kernel. Where do I look to find that information? Would one grep in the kernel source? The Asus A7S333-WA has a SiS745 chiip set and the Asus A7V8x-x has a VIA KT400. Please post the URL of your favorite hardware information source for these two motherboards / chip sets so the next fellow who google's for Debian and ASUS will find some good information to make a purchase.
