Hi,

I run * on the first 800mhz version they released. I do not use any PCI
cards, so cannot coment on that I'm afraid. It works fine for testing in the
environment I use...but I haven't stressed it at all. I had to make a change
to the makefile for the processor, but I doubt that is needed for the newer
versions.

If I am right you made the cool little CF + flash disk * distro? I think
they are an ideal pair. One of the new mini-itx boards comes with compact
flash onboard, and has no builtin sockets except LAN and VGA. Very easy to
make an embedded system.

I think any of them > 266 geode!

Hello everyone,

	Does anyone out there have actual experience with running * on a 
mini-itx board from VIA?  They look good, but I have some reserves 
because of VIA's problems with PCI latency in recent years (audio 
dropouts, wierd things happening).  I am looking at the EPIA CL-10000. 
For $270, I can get a CL-10000 (1ghz C3, dual ethernets, etc), 256mb 
RAM, and a nice small (12 x 2 x 11) case (with 1 4cm fan)...  They look 
like a good next step (or leap) up from a Soekris Net4801.  I know that 
1ghz C3 != 1ghz intel, but it's still probably better than a 266mhz Geode...

	I would love to try this board with Sangoma A101's, te110p's, and
even 
some TDM4xx's, but if people out there already know that * is a bad fit 
here, I probably won't even bother and look elsewhere.  Any tips, notes, 
caveats, etc from anyone?  Anyone using any of the hardware I mentioned 
with one of these boards?

Thanks!
