And I've been having a hell of a time with (plain old i386) Asus
A7V880: it doesn't want to work with a PCI graphics card (affects
both 4.10 and 5.3-RC1), and I still have to find out what's wrong
with the onboard SysKonnect NIC, but given I've been having little
luck with a (known good) xl card as well, that will probably turn
out to be a pilot error.
Nevertheless, the fact that the mobo just doesn't work without
an AGP card has been the last dip, and I'm done with Asus for good.
