How about GeForce 8200 and nVIDIA HDMI as an alternative? (Perhaps even new 9300 or something for Intel. Don't know much about that, sorry.) There is even one ITX (made by Jetway), and lots of mATX. Much cheaper than G45, and I believe that it supports 8ch LPCM. Not sure if it supports that on Linux, but there was a lot of work on that topic recently.
What is the current status on multichannel LPCM over HDMI on the G45? With my DG45FC I can only manage to send the L/R channels to my Onkyo 707.
That's interesting - it should work. How about testing 8-channel audio with speaker-test -t wav -c8
? What's your kernel version and dmesg?
