[LUNA] newer AMD64 chipset support ....

[William A. Mahaffey III]

.... I am looking at upgrading this hardware (AMD64X2 3800+ CPU, socket 
AM2, GA-M61SME-S2 mbd, nVidia GeForce 6100/nForce 405 chipset, running 
Fedora 14 64-bit, *old*) at some point .... I am looking at newish AMD 
APU based boards/boxen, either higher end (A88X chipset, A10-6800 APU's) 
or smaller (AMD E1800 APU based). I want to run CentOS 6.n if possible, 
thought I might look at FreeBSD. I want stability & tranquility :-). I 
am having a hard time finding out if these newer chipsets/APU's are 
supported under either CentOS 6.n *or* FreeBSD. FreeBSD only mentions 
AMD Athlon™64 (“Clawhammer") CPU s as supported under FreeBSD 9.2 
(current stable) & no mention that I can find of chipsets (see 
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.2R/hardware.html) .... worse for 
CentOS/RHEL 6.n .... would anyone happened to know reasonably 
authoritatively if these APU's/chipsets definitely *are* or *are not* 
supported under these OS's :-) ? TIA & merry Christmas ....
