Someone told me that FreeBSD is more stable than Linux and the availability of software is greater. Is that true? In addition, I have a few questions before I can delve into the world of FreeBSD: i. Does FreeBSD support Matrox Millenium? I've got an MGA with 4Mb WRAM. ii. Does FreeBSD support Cyrix P166+ (or even P200+)? I'm planning to upgrade my machine from Intel P90 to Cyrix P166+. Thank you very very much in advance. Lawrence <llwk@spider.net.hk>
