For the archives, the VIA EPIA VT-310DP (<http://www.via.com.tw/en/ products/mainboards/mini_itx/vt_310dp/>) works *great* with FreeBSD 6.1. It's a dual-1GHz Via motherboard. The second processor is picked up without trouble, and its padlock cryptography acceleration works, or at least /dev/crypto is created with "device crypto" and "device cryptodev" in the kernel config. I didn't have to do anything special to get these things detected except for the kernel config. In fact, I pulled a hard drive out of another system and put it in here and it booted right up. My dmesg is below.
