Give Gateway a call and ask them if they know where you can get Linux drivers for that FIC C51GU01  MB :)

Thanks for the input. I received a reply from FIC regarding the mboard. Gateway is the only to acquire drivers. This is a special OEM build and they are the only source for same.

Again thank you, I really appreciate your response to my request.
