FYI I`ve finished a custom install of FreeBSD 4.0 Release on a brand new Intel motherboard last night, the D815EEA, with integrated LAN, Audio and Graphics. The initial results are summarized below: Configuration: - D815EEA with; * Intel 82562ET 10/100Mbit/sec (nic) component. * Audio (Intel 82801BA+AD1885 analog codec, and Creative Labs ES1373 digital controller and the CS4297 Analog codec). * Intel 82815E Graphics and Memory Controller Hub, the Graphics controller. - Pentium III 733/133MHz CPU. - 128MB PC133 SDRAM, non ECC. - IBM Deskstar 18GB IDE disk. - CDROM/floppy/....... etc The initial install went OK, and after the first reboot I noticed that it did not recognice a valid ethernet controller. I really expected it to see a "fxp" device, but no. I have not tested the audio or graphics parts yet. I expect that I won`t be able to use the older 810 chipset support in XFree86. This board has an AGP4x port, however. I will disable onboard LAN for the time being, and install another nic for further testing of the board. The board are really fast and seems very stable. All i all a nice board. Are there anybody working on support for these new Intel LAN components? I will also install an AGP Graphics card for further testing, I do not expect that the new Intel graphics chip will be supported soon. --Stein Morten -- /* Stein M Sandbech Email: stein@ife.no ** ** Senior Systems Engineer, EDP dept Email: stein@www.ife.no ** ** Institute for Energy Technology Tel: +47 63 80 60 00 ** ** Box 40, N-2007 Kjeller, NORWAY Fax: +47 63 81 11 68 */ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
