Off the top of my head, official support for AMD K8 in 64bit mode exists in Fedora Core 4, Suse, and Mandriva. Other distros have ports that are not officially support by the distro, ie Debian's 64bit port.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

&gt; I think you should try google before posting to this news group.<br>
&gt; Maybe even the manuf. website.&nbsp;&nbsp;Why don't you try using
Knoppix?&nbsp;&nbsp;This
    <br>
&gt; isn't a linux newbie newsgroup.<br>

&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Has anyone GA-K8N Ultra 9 motherboard?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Is it linux-friendly?<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Does it support dual-core CPUs?<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; PS/2 keyboards works correctly with this motherboard?
    <br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; How about livecd distros (like Knoppix) on it?<br>
