don't see why not... the only thing you may have to manually configure is the tp link but that's with any modem other than that it all looks good to go.... try out mint Linux

It looks like it should work. Hardware support is pretty good in modern Linux, common mobo chipsets, sound and video drivers should install out of the box. The one I had the most concern about was the wireless adapter; the only forum posts I saw citing any issues with that adapter referenced older (versions of Ubuntu (12.04). I'd guess the driver works better in the most recent 14.04.

The motherboard itself passed a check for Ubuntu as old as 10.10
