I've been looking into replacing my current laptop/desktop with a Clevo D900K, AMD-64 machine. I'm just curious if anyone out there has any experience getting FreeBSD up and running on this machine and at what capacity (card reader, 8.1 sound card, WLAN+Bluetooth, Hardware RAID, etc.) I was going to go with the Nvidia Quadro graphics card and am curious on the status of 64bit native nvidia drivers. I know it wasn't/isn't supported as of yet. Also I was hoping to take an existing i386 system and move it to the 64bit system. Can I by properly specifying the environment rebuild an i386 system to 64bit? Or am I better off/ have too install a fresh 64bit system? I would imagine this could tick off a few ports like portupgrade that would make rebuilding tricky at best. I've linked to and included the machine spec for those savy enough to look at the general hardware and know it's level of support. thanks, -brian http://www.clevo.com.tw/products/D900K.asp link might make the following look a little nicer D900K Specification CPU 。 AMD AthlonTM 64 X2 Processor 3800+/4200+/4600+ 　 (2.00~2.40GHz, 1MB L2 cache, socket 939) 。 AMD AthlonTM 64 X2 Processor 4400+/4800+ 　 (2.20~2.40GHz, 2MB L2 cache, socket 939) 。 AMD AthlonTM 64 Processor FX-53/FX-55/FX-57 　 (2.40~2.80GHz, 1MB L2 cache, socket 939) 。 AMD AthlonTM 64 Processor 3000+/3200+/3400+/3500+/3800+ 　 (1.80~2.40GHz, 512KB L2 cache, socket 939) 。 AMD AthlonTM 64 Processor 3700+/4000+ 　 (2.20~2.40GHz, 1MB L2 cache, socket 939) Core Logic 。VIA K8T890CE + VT8237R Display 。17.1" WXGA (1440x900) TFT / 17.1" WSXGA+ (1680x1050) / 17.1" WUXGA (1920x1200) TFT Memory 。Two 64-bit wide DDR data channels 。Two 200-pin SODIMM sockets, supporting DDR 400 。Expandable Memory up to 2GB, based on 256/512/1024MB SODIMM Module Video Controller 。(Option) nVIDIA QuadroTM Fx 2500 　High performance graphic chip 。512MB DDRIII Video RAM on board 。256-bit video memroy interface 。PCI-Express x16 。Fully DirectX 9.0 support 。Modular Design 。OpenGL support 。(Option) nVIDIA GeForceTM Go 　7900 GTX High performance 　graphic chip 。256MB DDRIII Video RAM on board 。256-bit video memroy interface 。PCI-Express x16 。Fully DirectX 9.0 support 。Modular Design 。H.264 encode support 　 (HD-DVD/BD-DVD playback) 。(Option) nVIDIA GeForceTM Go 7900 　GTX High performance graphic chip 。512MB DDRIII Video RAM on board 。256-bit video memroy interface 。PCI-Express x16 。Fully DirectX 9.0 support 。Modular Design 。H.264 encode support 　 (HD-DVD / BD-DVD playback) Storage 。One changeable Primary 2.5" HDD 9.5mm(H) 。Serial ATA HDD support 。Supporting Master mode IDE ATA-100/133 (Ultra DMA) 。One changeable Primary Bay for 12.7mm(H) DVD-ROM / Combo / DVD-Dual Driver 。(Option) One external USB 1.44MB Floppy Disk Drive 。(Option) One changeable Secondary 2.5" HDD 9.5mm(H) 。(Option) One changeable Secondary Bay for 12.7mm(H) DVD-ROM / Combo / DVD-Dual Driver Keyboard 。Full size keyboard, with Numeric Pad, Multi-Language support 。Built-in Touchpad with scrolling function Sound System 。AC'97 2.2 Compliant Interface 。3D stereo enhanced sound system 。Virtual 8-channel audio output 。Sound-Blaster PROTM compatible 。S/PDIF Digital output 。SRS (Sound Retrieval SystemŽ ) / WOW 3D sound technology 。1x Built-in Microphone 。4x Built-in Speakers 。1x Built-in Sub woofer 。1x Built-in Audio DJ Console for music CD (MP3 format compatible) I/O Ports 。4x USB 2.0 ports 。2x Mini IEEE1394a ports 。1x S-Video jack for TV output (HDTV support) 。1x Serial port 。1x Parallel port (LPT1), supporting ECP/EPP 。1x Infrared Transfer port 。1x DVI port 。1x PS/2 port 。1x Headphone jack 。1x Microphone jack 。1x S/PDIF output jack 。1x Line-in jack for Audio input 。1x RJ-45 port for LAN 。1x RJ-11 port for Modem 。1x DC-In jack 。1x CATV input jack (optional function with TV-Tuner module) 。1x S-Video jack for Video input (optional function with TV-Tuner module) Slot 。Built-in 10-in-1 Card Reader (MS/MS Pro/SD/MMC/CF/SM/MicroDrive/MS DUO/Mini SD/RSMMC) 。1x Type II PCMCIA socket Communication 。Infrared Transfer : 115.2Kbps SIR/4Mbps FIR, IrDA 1.1 compliant 。10/100/1000BASE-T Fast Ethernet onboard 。Integrated V.90/56K Azalia Modem (V.92 compliant) 。(Option) 802.11b/g MiniPCI Wireless LAN Module 。(Option) BluetoothTM Class II V2.0 Module, combo with 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Module 。(Factory option) 1.3M-pixel Video Camera module Power 。Full Range 220W AC adapter - AC input 100~240V, 47~63Hz, DC output 20V, 11A 。Changeable 12-cell Smart Li-Iion battery pack, 6600mAh Security 。KensingtonŽ Lock Dimension 。397(W) x 298(D) x 49.5(H)mm, 15.6"(W) x 11.7"(D) x 1.9"(H) 。5.8Kg with 12 cells Lithium-lion battery Options 。One changeable Second 2.5" HDD 9.5mm(H) 。One changeable Second Combo / DVD-Dual Driver 12.7mm(H) 。One external USB 1.44MB Floppy Disk Driver 。MiniPCI Hybrid TV Tuner (analog or digital) 。802.11b/g MiniPCI Wireless LAN Module 。BluetoothTM Class II V2.0 Module, combo with 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Module 。One external USB 1.44MB Floppy Disk Drive 。(Factory option) 1.3M-pixel Video Camera module
