Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I am considering an ASUS CUSL2 'Solano 2' M/B. I am concerned that the 815e graphics and AGP memory controller chipset may cause problems with both the custom kernel and XFree86? Or would a more conserative M/B, such as the CUV4X be an apppropriate choice? Other suggestions based on the 370 CPU config will also be welcome! I am looking forward to a system that will have several years of compatiblity with current hardware trends and prove to be agreeable to FreeBSD development trends as well.
