Intel's Zappa does have some problem with FreeBSD. Read www-itg/ISS/hardware/performance.ps page 6-7 for hardware configuration issue. I have not test the Endeavor yet since it is very new. I tested many hardware and spent most of my money. I won't do further testing on hardware until next spring :-) -- /-------------- Jin Guojun ------------ v ---- Internet: g_jin@lbl.gov ----\ | Imaging & Distributed Computing | Usenet: ucbvax!g_jin@lbl.gov | | Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory | Bitnet: -- | | 50B-2239, Berkeley, CA 94720 - jin%george.lbl.gov@Csa3.LBL.Gov |
