I've not had a single problem since I switched to my Abit VA-10 about 
six months ago.  It's been running 24x7 with an occasional reboot for 
kernel updates.  I'm using the ivtv 0.1.9 driver patched for 2.6 and the 
2.6.4 kernel.  My previous board (Chaintech 7NIF2 (NForce2)) was nothing 
but trouble and acted like the reported VIA 266 ivtv bug.
