All versions of Linux and New Motherboards

[zolar1]

Does anyone know which version(s) of Linux are 100% compatible with this (http://tinyurl.com/84nencs) motherboard?

Also, I wanted to make that a hyperlink but it doesn't work. It wants me to have a PhD in HTML to do it...

I will be upgrading soon to a new mobo, mo' mem'ry, and an SSD HD and need those exact features in a compatible motherboard.

The type and numbers of slots are what I need. (Never enough expansion slots)...

Not sure if anyone can say 100%.

For me Kernel 2.6.38.8 and above work well with my hardware.  Anything below 2.6.38.8 I have trouble suspend/hibernate due to USB 3.0 Host Controller.  I need to have USB 3.0 enabled in my BIOS because I have USB 3.0 docking system.

I have two desktop PCs both identical except the other CPU is an AMD Phenom II X4 965.

Motherboard you linked have USB 3.0 if you need to enable it then 2.6.38.8 and up should fine.
