Re: Supported motherboards? (Abit IS7?)
Yeh that board works with FreeBSD 5.2.1-R-p9. However you need to reflash the latest BIOS as the ACPI seems to be broken and yes the sound DOES work. You need a rebuild of the kernel though.

It says it is AC97(and a quick google shows that AC97 appears to work with FreeBSD), but you never know..

A rebuild of the kernel is not a problem(though the module can't be loaded as a module?). I don't think so. I always include the sound statically in the kernel. Maybe somone else will be able to help.
