any of the distros that support ICH9 should give you support. the Quad should be able to use vanilla but don't quote me on that yet. I'd give the voodoo kernel a try first.

same here... just remember to watch out for the RAID controller. This could be a bum-biter for the system if not recognized right. disable it in the BIOS if any problems arise right away.
