Confused a little bit - at the bottom of
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Spec.aspx?ClassValue=Motherboard&ProductID=2551&ProductName=GA-P35C-DS3R it says "Due to different Linux support condition provided by chipset vendors, please download Linux driver from chipset vendors' website or 3rd party website. " How would this be possible? (Sorry if I sound thick). When would you download the driver, because the system wouldn't be able to run until the motherboard is set up would it? Or would it download a generic driver, and then you manually replace it with a specific one?
