Hello there,
I’m trying super hard but I simply can’t find any info online about Linux compatibility of Asus ROG Strix X370-I ITX board. Did anyone test it on the forum? Could someone confirm that it does indeed work (booting, network, sound, sensors)?
I’m in the middle of assembling a mini Linux Ryzen box and wanted to choose this motherboard for its two M.2 ports but I’m not sure how it’ll work with Linux.
I don’t believe that in Linux you can change the RGB color.
As for other stuff I do not know.
Also if anyone has this board or knows info on the board regarding Linux compatibility, they can add it to the Linux Motherboard compatibility wiki.
Linux motherboard compatibility wiki for informing others about what works on a motherboard and what does not under Linux.
INTEL
The Intel DH55TC motherboard
What Works
Networking

Audio from the green port on the back of the motherboard worked flawlessly.

Video. Board has a HDMI port but I lack a proper CPU to test it.
NIC teaming.
Workarounds
For front panel audio (output)
https://frdmtoplay.com/gigabyte-front-panel-audio-with-linux/
To get the front MIC working, follow a similar procedure, but the PA commands change a bit (replace “sink” with “source”)
For onboard sensors
Compile it87 module
Correct sensor labels (check near the end of the thread)
Operating Systems Used With ( including version number )
Kubuntu 17.10 with 4.15 kermel
