[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi! I am a newbee Unix developer and would like to develop on FreeBSD for it's performance & scalability as a web server and as a end-user workstation. I am doing R&D on a Gateway Performance 500 and I have questions as to whether FreeBSD will support it's hardware. Can the OS utilize its: 1.128 RAM? 2.13.5GB 7200RPM Ultra ATA hard drive with UATA 66 Controller / UDMA 66? 3.STB Velocity 4400 / 16M nVidia Riva TNT Graphics Adapter? 4.DVD ROM ? 5.Multifunction keyboard? 6.Integrated Sound Blaster AudioPCI 64D & Boston Acoustics BA735 Digital Speakers w/Subwoofer? 7.PIII/500? I looked at your hardware compatibility list and it didn't mention any of the items above. If it doesn't are there any plans to?
