  • Recommended hardware

    Here’s a useful list of chipsets (found on motherboards) that are documented. Since it’s documented, it’s easy to add support for them & the drivers are less buggy.

    If you really care about Open Source, contact the company & ask for hardware documentation/datasheets. We don’t want source code: we want freely available specs.

    (Signing an NDA is not an option, we also want to share what we know to other groups out there: *BSD, Linux, Haiku, Minix3 and many other groups in pure open source spirit)

    Intel:

    ICH7

    ICH8 mobile

    ICH9

ICH10
    

    CMD/Silicon Image
    

    CMD 648

    CMD 649

    SiI 680
    

    Promise:
    

    PDC20579
    

    PDC40775
