I looks like a lot of AM2 m/bs (from Gigabyte anyway) have gone to AMD 
chipsets for AM2+ CPU support.
AMD do have a Linux driver downloadable from their site.  Anyone feeling 
brave?
m/b's like the *GIGABYTE GA-MA69GM-S2H *do have HDMI.
Otherwise you will just have to shell out $60-70 for an NVIDIA PCI-E card.


Merry christmas guys.
