>Description:
The M1698 chipset from ULi is a 'fairly' new AMD64 chipset. They provide GPL'd drivers for Linux Kernel 2.6.x for LAN and SATA. They also provided a patch to AGP_AMD64 driver on linux. I've tested and used all for a couple months without issue on Linux. Looks like their targeting Linux Kernel 2.6.12 for inclusion.
I'd like to see support for this chipset in FreeBSD. I have the linux source that I can email. Is this possible?
