My Nforce 2 runs great under 2.6, but I had some problems under 2.4 when it first came out. Considering the popularity of Nvidia and the fact that the company does release drivers I am sure that it will eventually be supported, but I will probably wait for six months or so after the chipset has been released before I would risk it. After all, I really don't plan on going to Gigabit ethernet in the house until the switches drop to the under $60 price range and while SATA hardware RAID 0,1 would be nice, I can do the same thing in software with linux. I definetly plan on going AMD64 on my next system, but I will probably get VIA based system initially.
