Hi all,
I'm looking for a micro-ATX motherboard for Core 2 duo, with embedded video and HDMI support.
I will use it with Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon.
Does this perfect mobo exist? Have you experiment it?
Thanks a lot!

EVGA offers a low-cost HDMI Core 2 Duo MB with integrated video, sound, and a few other nice features for a modest Media PC (HDMI, DVI, and VGA video outs on MB):

It is about $70 after a $15 rebate, good till the end of the month ($85 before rebate).
I have no Exp. with the MB, but suspect it should work fine for you & Ubuntu (no unusual/cutting-edge chips on MB).
Another one in case you prefer having Open Source drivers is the Asus P5E-VM HDMI:

It should work well with Linux out of the box. It's more expensive, though.
