Zotac's site makes no mention of Linux support. Has anyone had any trouble with this board and a Linux OS?

Running CentOs and Ubuntu without issue. Only hardware feature I have not tested is the bluetooth.

I've been running Proxmox Virtual Environment, wich is a distro based on Debian, no issues.

I currently use this board with PClinuxOS (my main, and preferred OS) and have had no problems with it. I have not used the wireless because I am close enough to my router to use a cable, but it does detect my network so I assume it should work fine. I can't speak to the performance of the onboard video because I use an nvidia card, but it is supported as far as I know.

I have not tested with the newer version of Ubuntu. On pclinuxos with a kernel newer than 3.10 the hardware driver included does not work well at all. The driver from the manufacturer will need extra work to compile.

Hi, I use it with Linux but the Info I have is 0x067b for the vendor, 0x2303 PL2303 Serial port, V4.00. I have had no problems with it so far. Mark

It works great with Suse and Open Suse Linux with no problems using standard drivers installed with linux -- I don't use the Setpoint, so I can't speak to that issue

It didn't work when I tried it with Linux Mint 16. No assistance on Asus website. Didn't pursue the matter further.

I haven't tried it with linux, but the windows driver will not work, you have to find one for linux

I got it to work with XP and 7, so it should work with 8. I never tried it with Linux.

I have not used it with Linux. I have used it with Win7 and Win Server 2008. It uses "Realtek" technology, if that helps. It should work with Linux.

Yes it does work with all Linux versions. Intel has a driver for this card. If it's not included with your distro you can download it from Intels website. As far as freeBSD you would have to check with Intel and see if they offer a driver and also check the hardware compatability list for freeBSD. I have this card running in a dual boot with Windows 7 and mint 17 and both cases it worked out of the box.

I don't have Linux OS. I have Windows. I have not had any problems. I recommend contacting Brother and asking them.

I wish I had an answer for you. Unfortunately, I have no experience with linux. You may have better luck contacting customer service/tech support with Warpia directly. Good Luck,... and again.. sorry I can't be of assistance.

I put the chip information in a review I wrote on the version of this product that I received on September 27, 2013 (ordered from the page http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008I679QG) :http://www.amazon.com/review/R1QV076S18G9RK/ref=cm_srch_res_rtr_alt_1That seems to have the same amazon ASIN: B008I679QG as the one you are asking about.There is an information page about Linux and that chip that was last updated in March 2014 at http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Somagic

It is supported by most linux distributions. I use it in unRaid, which is based on Slackware, and it worked straight out of the box...

Board is very touchy. Several comments on other forums indicate problems. We have tried it in two different Desktops. One worked satisfactorily, one did not. Neither were Dell systems. We found the main issue was power management that disabled the board. This was true even if we unchecked this is the driver. We did find the StarTech has a download to allow power management by the motherboard to be disabled and a new firmware release to be installed. This helped a bit. The main advantage was after the updates we could restore the driver with a warm boot but the system still loses the board on a weekly basis when we do our intensive updates to an external drive we have connected to the card. So I would be cautious. Maybe other products s/b checked out too.
