The point I am trying to make is that by now linux should be developed 
to atleast that decent level where it can be installed on any 
regular/popular motherboard without having to experiment with different 
distros. What's the point of freedom if I can't choose my favourite 
distro ( That too a 2006 release) for a new motherboard. Just as in 
windows, I don't expect linux to have all drivers built in but atleast 
it should load and install with basic drivers as in windows instead of 
throwing up errors like that. I have had no problems of 915 chipsets 
with XP.

Rony.
