At Strange then that none of my servers that run FreeBSD have this chip. Strange also that none of the developers have noticed this. I wonder if this is because I look at the hardware recommendations first - before buying hardware? Like on places like http://www.testdrive.hp.com/ where I can actually log into HP systems running FreeBSD and try it out myself? Nawwwwww! Is it possible that it's the most popular because it's the cheapest low-end chipset out there, fit only for desktop systems running the latest game from Id Software? Nawwwww! At least in the United States retailers are held to a 30 day warranty on products - if you buy one of these problematic motherboards and find that FreeBSD doesen't run on it, then take it back and get a different one.
