...nothing off the top of my head, but I do know from experience that just 
about any board with integrated devices have turned into bigger headaches 
and cost more time and money in configuring them for anything but windoh$ 
than they are worth. Best to check the supported hardware list, and if you 
are going to the store with a fistful of $$, try a bare board and add on 
the devices you need through expansion cards, as you have a better chance 
of getting true hardware (as opposed to "assisted") than with an 
integrated board.

My understanding is you have a baby-atx board... is physical space a 
limitation? A 1U or 2U case, for example?

IMHO, getting a kernel hack for this chipset is not a real option, unless 
the coders have nothing else really pressing to do at the moment.
