You can easily check if the motherboard has issues, but this idea you should install on random hardware is a mistake.
Linux is not MacOS, but the best time to swap is when you get new hardware. Run into issues and the old Desktop/Laptop still works and there is no need to stress.
Why, it works on windows? And it's not 'random hardware' its the hardware they have and use. You should realize this is a failure of linux, not of the user.
So? Linux is not Windows.
It’s the advice that’s a problem not the user or Linux.
Which suggests the question is isn’t if it’s ready but if you’re going to be happy with it.
However, can I know what is that easy way to check if every single chip of a motherboard will be compatible with linux?
I am honestly asking, because I have not found anything to check hardware.
the same way, if I want to make a computer formed with parts from a store, (not a prebuilt) how can I check all pieces to make sure that it will be compatible?
Thank you.
Whilst it is true that I did not check compatibility of my system. If I had, and would have bought that motherboard based on the website, I would still have the same problem.
Linux is not yet ready. the attitude of the community to say, it is the user problem, does not help to get it ready either.
Seriously just buy a Chromebook.

And by the way, I just realised that my motherboard is certified to run on Windows 7, Redhat linux and Suse (Page 2 of the manual). And I did have problems with the audio on Fedora 39 using that motherboard.
The point is not that the user needs to keep purchasing hardware (a chromebook) until something it works, the point is that linux is doing a terrible job at working on hardware that people have, and that it is Linux certified!

Your sound issues might not be caused by driver compatibility.
They never got that far to diagnostic my issue, I did myself, and eventually decided that I don't want to deal which such a community every time I got a problem. I would rather see the Microsoft ads after each update. (Main reason to change)
I might sound quite snarky when talking about linux, but I keep reading all folks saying is ready, no problems, and they get very hostile when you tell them that not it isn't. I wish it was, I love KDE, I wish I could run KDE on top of windows.
but it isn't ready, and with any problem that happens you are on your own.
The last thing I would need to test is to pay for a supported linux, and lets them deal with all the issues I got. But I also have the feeling that it will be as useless as any support from any other company that I had contacted. (Fine for simple stuff, useless for more complex issues).
By the way, if you have any ideas where to look for my sound issues, I will take notes on my Joplin for the future. :)
I would hope that you consider that dismissive replies like this do little to encourage anyone to adopt linux, and instead make the community seem elitist and off putting.
