The A8V Deluxe from Asus works just fine.

Exactly which information do you think was lacking?  I had no trouble 
figuring out that everything on the board was supported by 5.4.  The 
hardest bit was usually figuring out from the Asus site exactly what 
*was* on the board.

PS I have no idea about the special add-on wireless card, since I didn't 
get or want one.  The ACPI sucks a bit:

$ acpidump -t
[...]
acpidump: RSDT entry 2 (sig OEMB) is corrupt

and the 2nd serial port is an add-on card not included with the board 
and probably unobtainable - at least, I can't find one in the UK.

Other than that, it's fine.  Sound, ethernet and both RAID controllers 
work out of the box (though I haven't used either as a RAID yet).

PPS I'm running i386  not AMD64.
