Can anybody recommend a Mini-ITX type motherboard with kernel 2.6 support?
I have looked at the VIA range but hardware seems unstable especially DMA.

I have an ME-6000 which has been running Linux 2.6.16 for a good few weeks
quite happily. I have not seen any problems with DMA.

I am however awaiting the port of the relevant lm-sensors module which
I think is due to be in 2.6.17 but may not have made it and I might have
to wait for 2.6.18.
