Both of those CPUs work fine in FreeBSD.

AMD Processors

2004-01-02 Thread Sal Aldana
I was wondering which AMD Processors are compatible with FreeBSD. I have a 
Athlon XP 2700 and wanted to know if it would work. I was also going to 
build a Dual Processor machine using Athlon MP Processors. If any of these 
work could you let me know before I decide to use FreeBSD. Thank you for 
your time.

Since they really think they are improved 686's, why wouldn't you 
expect them to work :). FWIW, I have 4 XP's running 4-stable and 
5-current but no MP modles.

Re: AMD Processors

2004-01-02 Thread Dany
My 2600+ overclocked doesn't complain on the 5.2 (worked also with 
4.9) Don't worry I don't use it a production server ;)

For the kernel configuration you can even optimize the compilation for 
such processors (5.x only) :

options CPU_ATHLON_SSE_HACK
options CPU_ENABLE_SSE
and also a special cpu type in the make.conf

/CPUTYPE?=athlon-xp/

I would think that the second one (CPUTYPE) is more critical than the 
first set of options (more multimedia oriented).
