Problem with new mobo: nvidia 7050+nforce 630i+realtek 8211b

[kikoune]

I got that new Gigabyte GA-73UM-S2H mobo for my htpc and I have a few problems to make it works with linux. (I should have check the compatibility before...)

Anyway, link to the specs: http://www.gigabyte-usa.com/Products...me=GA-73UM-S2H

It's a core2 mobo with nvidia chipset 7150/nforce 630i. The audio is driven by a Realtek ALC889A codec and the network by RTL 8211B chip. It has 2 pci port, 1 pci express 16x and 1 pci express 1x.

I'm running a 2.6.23.8 kernel.

What works:
- the integrated nvidia video 7150 chipset (works with the latest beta driver 169.04)
- the sata controller (ahci) but I don't actually have sata drives

What does not work:
- the integrated hard drive controller (but it's ok, I use the a pci ide controller sil680)
- the integrated network (I m using a pci express 1x network card for now)
- the integrated sound card (I m using a pci sound card for now)

So bottom line, I m using pci(express) cards to replace the unsupported components, but I d like to make them work. I m sure it will be supported in future kernel version, and right now I have trouble to find drivers from realtek website.

Does anyone have the same kind of hardware?? Any advice to make the thing work?

Thanks!
