Incidentally, the 430VX isn't "Triton-3". There is really no such
thing as Triton-3. The VX came out about the same time as Triton-2,
and is simply a lower-cost alternative.
I don't know anyone running this chipset. So, I can't help you there.
My only experience is with my two Asus motherboards:
Asus P55TP4N (Triton-1) with a Pentium 120MHz
- and -
Asus P6NP5 (Natoma 440FX) with a Pentium Pro 200MHz
Both run NetBSD and Windows NT beautifully. I would expect FreeBSD to
run just as well.
