Linux on Shuttle MN31/N

Altoid · 10-10-03, 09:12 PM

Has anyone successfully run Linux on a Shuttle MN31/N motherboard? The Nvidia site drives appear to support both the nForce2 IGP and MCP-T core chipset, as well as the on board GeForce 4 MX video, but I want to be certain before buying one.

If you have it running, please let me know if you encountered any surprises on Ethernet or Twinview support.

Thank you.

Hi,

Yes they support it fully.
Didn't have any problems with the MoBo.
Everything went without problems.

Thank you, feeyo - on your email I purchased one, and RH 9 installation went without a hitch.

So.. I am just putting a Shuttle MN31/N system together. Do I read your post correctly that RH9 has the drivers built right in and I won't have to download any drivers from nVidia?

Installed them. Worked great for just over 26 hours then random lockup just as with the previous drivers.

< Sigh >

Mandrake 9.2, Athlon XP2000 on a KT400 mobo, GF4 MX 440.

I give in. Looks like I'll be buying an ATI for xmas. Any recommendations?
preferably one with drivers that work.
