From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Namedrop the mobo and soundcard
The MT7902 WiFi/Bluetooth Chip by Mediatek Corp. does not (and probably never will) have any official driver support. There are some unsuccessful community attempts to get it working, but nobody actually managed to pull it off.
G6 Soundcard works for simple pass-through but SBX features aren't natively enabled, you need a Windows install with Soundblaster Connect to enable the functionality and load the settings into the onboard memory of the card.
Linux "supports" Dolby Atmos but it sound mostly like dogwater if not combined with Atmos mixed audio.
