Hi to you all ! I've a certain problem because I would like to buy new motherboards which should be albe to run FreeBSD. The boards are Gigabyte GA-586HX and/or GA-586DX both (hopefully) state of the art ... but I don't yet know any guy using them. The Chipset is an Intel TXC 82439HX Rev.01h in both boards. Until now, we always used Gigabyte boards - everything works fine with GA-486DX and GA-486ATE (Triton Chipset). Now my questions: Is anyone using one or both of these boards ? Are there any problems or are certain problems to be expected running FreeBSD ? Mention: I do _not_ explicitly care about SMP on the GA-586DX Dual-CPU-Slot board. If it's running - okay, but for the moment a single processor should be enough. Propably, the board should be Intel-SMP conform. This is an Intel chipset, hell, is'nt it ? I'd be glad if someone could give me some hints.
