Nor I. You might look at boards with on-board Intel graphics.

Intel have open sourced drivers for at least some of them. I chose
a board with one for exactly that reason; only way to be sure of
good support in any Open source OS. I'm happy with it, but then
I'm not a heavy graphics user. Installed Xubuntu 7.04, 7.10, 8.04
with no hassles or hitches. On 8.10, it works but seems to have
forgotten about 1920*1024 mode.
