Asus motherboards

Are these boards something I should now avoid with Fedora and anything past
RH 9.0? I have been accustomed to using Asus boards for small servers and
workstations but have in the last year they have been impossible with
anything past RH 9.0 and Fedora.

Anyone know if this an issue with Asus designing thier boards to be more
Windows centric or does this have to do with the community not keeping up
with new boards (i.e P4PE, P4P800, P4C800)? Is this temporary or should I
be looking around for another mobo manufacturer?

What does this group recommend as far as motherboard selection (small
database/web servers)? thanks.

Funny you should post this. I am fighting now with an P5S800. It's
installes just fine. But once installed it wont reboot. That is you issue
a shutdown -r now or reboot or init 6 and it goes all the way through to
the restarting message and just hangs there - util you hit the reset or
power button.

I'd welcome anyones suggestions on how to fix it.
