	Just some more info on Shuttle in general.  I've been using one of 
their boards and the thing is solid.  It's an MV17.  It has an 
integrated S3 chip that isn't supported by XFree, but, surprisingly 
enough, Shuttle shipped Gnu/Linux drivers on the cdrom that came with 
the motherboard that do support the chip.  The drivers, unfortunately, 
are binary only.
