I can't find it in the manual, or on the mobo itself... THere's a "message LED" connection to indicate fax / modem transmission (prob ethernet, too) but there's no HDD LED . -- resolved

Now, does anyone know how the asus panel works? On the motherboard there are two pairs of line-out pins:

LineOut_FR , LineOut_RR -- jumpered together by default
LineOut_FL , LineOut_RL -- also jumpered together

I removed the jumper and attached the front "line-out" pins to LineOut_FR, LineOut_FL. This resulted in loss of sound on the back panel.

Am I supposed to leave the jumpers in and splice the case connections to them? How would the official asus part (aapanel) handle this?

Look at page 26 of your manual, 2.8 section 9, IDE activity LED. IDELED right above the power LED sideways.

OK, now that HDD is resolved, does anyone know anything about the AAPANEL hookups? On the motherboard there are two pairs of line-out pins:

LineOut_FR , LineOut_RR -- jumpered together by default
LineOut_FL , LineOut_RL -- also jumpered together

I removed the jumpers and attached the front "line-out" pins to LineOut_FR, LineOut_FL. This resulted in loss of sound on the back panel. Put the jumpers in -- the back panel sound is fine.

Am I supposed to leave the jumpers in and splice the case connections to them? How would the official asus part (aapanel) handle this?

did you get sound out of the front panal connections? i know my friend has an asus PEP4 board, i hooked that stuff up and he got sound out the back and front. my guess is you didn't hook it up correctly. i don't know how to do it with your case, but just troubleshoot (ie, try all combinations). you should get sound in back and front when done correctly. :)
