I have a box which I'm trying to run FreeBSD on. I can run FreeBSD 5.4 on it without any problems, but if I try run FreeBSD 6.0 or 6.1, at any point in time while the system is running (could be on load up or when system is already loaded), the computer just *freezes*. The only thing which can be done afterwards is a cold reboot. I hav checked the /var/log/messages file and haven't been able to find anything wrong. Hardware specs: Motherboard: A7N8X-X Has anyone ever had this kind of problem themselves or heard of it? Any help would be appreicated. Thanks!

So far, it doesn't appear to be supported by FreeBSD. I even snagged a snapshot of 7-CURRENT and that doesn't see it either. Booting with ACPI disabled doesn't allow it to complete booting. 6.1 boots to the installer, but doesn't see any devices. I would assume that the MPT driver is supposed to work with this? The mfi driver only seems to support the PERC5/i card.

Right now I'm using some AGP Radeon 9250 with 1*DVI and 1*SVGA. The TFT attached to the SVGA port is very noisy so I'm searching for a dual-DVI solution. I once tried to just buy a Radeon 9250 PCI to use the DVI from both cards. But the PCI+AGP setup didn't worked, so I could only use an AGP or the PCI card. I probably want to stick with radeon since I use an amd64 and there is - as far as i know - no dualhead supporting driver (the xorg one) with dualhead support for nvidea. The second point is that I don't want to spend much money on the cards since all I do is plain X11. I need exactly zero 3D performance. The 3rd point is, that I don't want any fan on the card(s). Last but not least - I would like to retain the ability of using my xawtv with overlay on both monitors which I probably loose when I use 2 cards, right? So right now I'm thinking about buying 2 PCI radeon cards and kick the AGP one out - will that work properly?

The second point is that I don't want to spend much Both the nv(4) and x11/nvidia-driver drivers support multi-head.

It shouldn't matter what cards/slots you put the video cards in, X.org supports multi-head configurations with different and similar cards. The only problem I've seen is with motherboards that have onboard video, I've not been able to use both the onboard video and a video card at the same time. -- Rick C.

I had a Matrox G400 DH in my former system - this one needed the Matrox driver for dualhead support. IIRC since 450DH the driver wasn't needed any longer which is good because the driver was i386-only.

Even the G550 needs a binary driver to support XV and Matrox only support i386 on X.org 6.8 and older (not 6.9).

That's not true. I get XV on my G450 running 6.9. It may need the binary for dual-DVI, though.

I think I will go for the SWEEX model, then... seems to be the safer choice... Edimax seems to use Ralink also, but I think that most consider Edimax low quality for some reason, so I might avoid it... Because on the box they advertise Linux support, but never mention it on the website - weird... and infos on their chipsets are as hard to find as a needle in a hey stack...
