My Abit KA7 with VIA chipset works just fine.

The models are the Abit KA7100 I think Soren has a KA7100 himself. (that is IIRC). Check the mailinglist archives, I'm pretty sure there are reports on KA7100 -- Wilko Bulte wilko@freebsd.org Arnhem, the Netherlands To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
