Well I am pretty sure this isn't an Nvidia chipset, actually I know it = isn't: atapci0: <VIA 8235 ATA133 controller> port 0xb000-0xb00f at device 17.1 = on pci0 ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0 ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 ad0: 9797MB <QUANTUM FIREBALLP LM10.2> [19906/16/63] at ata0-master = UDMA66 acd0: MODE_SENSE_BIG command timeout - resetting ata1: resetting devices .. done ..repeat 19 more times.. acd0: CDROM <CD-956E/AKV> at ata1-master PIO4 Maybe there are some similarities though - Nvidia seemed to just pull a = good chipset out of nowhere a couple of years ago, maybe they licensed = some stuff from Via? I know they worked a lot on the Xbox but that is an = Intel system - the nForce stuff is AMD-only. I have 4 operable machines, 3 of them working with this 694D board, the = other (ironically) a 230T also (which is working fine with a = 4.8-PRERELEASE kernel from 2/19). In a few weeks they will all be = replaced by new P4 machines and I should have the ability to basically = do whatever I want with them. So if this turns into a protracted issue = that requires testing, I will be more than happy to test patches for 4.x = and 5.x, single and dual processor. -Will >=20 >=20 >=20 > On Thu, 26 Jun 2003, Will Saxon wrote: >=20 > >=20 > >=20 > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: David Xu [mailto:davidxu@freebsd.org] > > > Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 6:30 PM > > > To: Soeren Schmidt; Bill Paul > > > Cc: imp@freebsd.org; current@freebsd.org > > > Subject: Re: Heads up: checking in change to ata-card.c > > >=20 > > >=20 > > > I have another problem different with Bill Paul's. > > > I have a Tyan Tiger 230T dual CPU MB.
