Hello, here at INRIA some people is working on a general configuration to be used in the new PCs we are going to acquire in the near future, it seems they consider Windows95/NT - Linux to make the choice, but my interest is in FreeBSD, do you have any comments on the hardware listed below? I'm specially interested in the MB performance/fiability, the Ethernet card's troughput and the sound capabilities for audioconferencing (I have plans to port FPhone http://www.inria.fr/rod eo/fphone/ to FreeBSD and WindowsNT). Of course, any reports on known problems under FreeBSD for this harware are most appreciated. - -Pentium Intel 200 Pro with 256 or 512 Kb of secondary cache (L2). - -Motherboard : SUPER P6DNF ( Single processor ). - -RAM : 2X32Mo <= 60ns . - -Graphic card : Diamond 968 Stealth 64 Video 4 Mb VRAM. - -Disk controller : Adaptec AHA-2940 Ultra Wide. - -Hard disk 2Go : Quantum XP32150 W . - -Ethernet : ProSum Proexpert-PCI 10Base-T (with option to change to 10-100 B-T) - -Sound card : Sound Blaster 16 PNP. - -CDROM : Pionner DRA-10X ATAPI . - -Kboard : Keytronic Querty 103 keys - M/N : E06101D-C - -Souris : Logitech Pilot Serie 3 Buttons. - -Monitor : NOKIA 21" 445XI or DEC 21" .
