Tried a dozen others, all crashed at some point during install or boot. Was able to get this installed, but wouldn't boot (to a display). I have the error written somewhere, but googling it said to add nomodeset. I'll see if I can find the error, maybe you have a different idea, but without nomodeset, I get a black screen on boot, nothing else..
This desktop had similar problems, I had help on this forum and Ubuntu forums, the members here solved it.
Here are the links to the threads so you can compared it to what you had to do to see if there is any info that may help.
Once done I have not had any problems since.
Eventually the Linux Kernel hardware headers will have support for the card, and then I will get a less blurry desktop etc.
