Well....wanting to install RedHat Linux on a

AMD Thunderbird 1.4c
DFI Motherboard [AK-75EC]
ATI TV-OUT 32MB [SDRAM]
USB Optical Netscroll (Genius) mouse
Microsoft Internet Keyboard
SONY DVD [DDU1621]
8x48x32 AOPEN (older enuff for driver.. can't be stuffed removing top DVD-drive for label) CD\RW Drive...

Now... what kinda support do I have I went to RedHat linux site and looked at Hardware compat..., there were some drivers but not new enuff... are the backwards compat....

or would I be better of going for Mandrake I saw a major difference when a series below my DFI board was supported as Redhat don't have drivers for motherboard hmmmmm......

I don't see a problem there, you don't need motherboard drivers for Linux. You don't mention the video card or NIC which probably have the best chance of not having drivers available.
