It has > via(4) driver that is not in 4.3 and that one should work for your chipset. The via(4) driver of this version has a bug which results in server crash, and it was not fixed until 4.3.99.903. I had experienced the crash with my VIA C3M266 M/B, which uses same CLE266 chipset as EPIA M10000. So it's better not to use server of 4.3.99.15 snapshot. I tried XFree86 4.4.0 and X.org's X11R6.7.0, and both seems to work fine. Now my environment is the combination of server from X11R6.7.0 (which is build without ports) and others from XFree86 4.3.0 ports. So x11-servers/xorg-server may be better solution. --- KIMURA Yasuhiro Mail: yasu@utahime.org WWW: http://www.utahime.org/
