CentOS - Feb 2007 - Intel 3000 and 5000 chipsets?

Greetings.  HP claims RHEL 4 supports their servers with the Intel 3000 
and 5000 chipsets.  Has anyone had any trouble/success building machines 
that use this?

For example, CentOS 4.4 on 
http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/1U/5015/SYS-5015M-T+.cfm

Thx.
Mike

I'm running CentOS4 on several X7DVL-E motherboardas (5000V chipset). 
Most stuff works well (put the SATA in AHCI mode).  The one caveat was 
that while the stock e1000 driver will somewhat work with the onboard 
NICs, it'll randomly decide to stop moving packets about.  An upgrade to 
the most recent driver from Intel (7.3.20) fixed that.
