From here : http://www.viatech.com/en/silicon/legacy/chipsets/cle266/ Key Features » Supports all VIA processors, Intel® Pentium® III and Intel® Celeron™ Socket 370 processors » 66/100/133MHz FSB settings » 100/133MHz DDR/SDR Memory bus settings » Support for Integrated VIA AGP 8X 2D/3D Graphics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_III Pentium_III Produced From early 1999 to 2003 Conclusion I think the drives broken was assumed because nobody maintain this very old drives. But you still have standard VGA working , to have drive of this chipset working, the solution should be use an old X version ... , I guess. > I am not enough of > an Xorg geek to know all the details, but it broke > between FreeBSD 9.3 and later releases.
