Hi All,
I've checked the mailing lists for recent info and didn't get much info.
Does anyone know how well the Cyrix CPU's are working with FreeBSD?. I'm
thing about upgrading two systems for F* one with a 5x86 133mhz the other
with 6x86 150+ Cyrix. I'd feel a lot better hearing others are using them
with no problems. Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Mitch

I had a asus P/I-P55TP4N with a Cyrix 6x86 150+ and 512kb cache. That
combination did't work well, i had a lot of internal errors when i
compiled something. I used this combination for a month, before i got a
p133. (and no more errors)
