The conventional way of ensuring that a piece of hardware will work well with
Linux is to hire a few kernel developers, and ship a hundred samples to other
kernel developers around the world, with complete hardware specs. This
technique is slow and expensive, and still not foolproof.

Alternatively, you could ask for motherboard recommendations on an enthusiast
forum, which this mailing list is not. This technique is fast and cheap, but
still not foolproof.
