I've been using 2.6.6 with 0 problems whatsoever.  *Everything* works
(apart from hardware-level mixing in the sound driver, which may
just be impossible with this chipset and never worked anyway with
older kernels anyway ;)

APM suspend, hibernate, etc. all work great too.

I'd suggest trying to bring it up in single user mode -- "linux single"
- -- first, and see if that works.
