--=======1C476166======= Content-Type: text/plain; x-avg-checked=avg-ok-22A16085; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit I want to setup inexpensive FreeBSD box, and I am looking at Asus A7N266-VM motherboard, which has good price/performance ratio, and has positive reviews coming from the Windoze world. It uses Nvidia nForce 220D chipset, which integrates video adapter, audio ( i810 compatible ) and seemingly exotic Ethernet MAC. Did anybody tried to install FreeBSD on such motherboard? With success? How difficult would it be to adapt Linux driver for the MAC ( provided in source by Nvidia ) to FreeBSD? I know, I can get supported NIC for less than $15, but why not to use the stuff which is there?
