_GA-965P-DS3_
Audio: snd_hda works reasonably well for playback (thanks Ariff!).
Also, believe it or not, I'm not even disgusted with the
integrated audio's quality.
Net: Surprisingly, Marvell have a binary driver for 5.x and 6.x.
Look for e.g. 'mykbsd60x86' package on their web site. BTW,
it'd be nice if someone could make a port... Seems to work.
SATA/IDE: Intel's ICH8 SATA controllers are quite good, as usual.
JMicron's controller doesn't like atapicam in kernel, though
(halts during boot). Might be something troubleshootable.
