Well, I'm using such a board these weeks,
without any problems, with a 2.4.0 kernel.
To solve the second point you talk about,
I submitted a little patch, some times ago,
so all the devices of this motherboard can be correctly
detected by Linux.
You can notice that the Ethernet function
is inside 82801BA Chips,
according to what Intel says in their datasheets.
