Hello,
I am researching a motherboard brand before making a purchase. If this
is the wrong place to go, my apologies. If there is a better place to
ask this question, please let me know. I am also not on the list so if
replies were sent directly to me that would be great.
I am looking at purchasing a Microstar motherboard (MS-6378L 2.0A) shown
here:
http://www.msicomputer.com/product/detail_spec/MS6378L_2a.htm
which features VIA bridge chips, namely the VIA KLE133 VT8361A chipset
(North-Bridge 510 BGA) and the VIA 686B chipset (South-Bridge 352 BGA).
Does anyone have this motherboard operating reliably at present? (with
NetBSD 1.5.2) If so, are there any limitations or gotchas?
Thank you for your help.
