I'm afraid of 440LX. Does > it support Parity or ECC ? Does AGP work without problems in FreeBSD ? The 440LX supports both parity and ECC. There is no AGP driver yet, so FreeBSD doesn't even know the AGP port is there. > Considering 440LX, Tyan's S169DLUA seems to be good. Is the SCSI > onboard (AIC7895) supported by FreeBSD ? The aic sources at -stable > does not list its PCI code. The aic driver is for ISA cards. The ahc driver does not support the 7895, but the ahc driver in the CAM patch kit for current does.
