[ILUG] Via C3 chips.

[Gavin McCullagh]

Does anyone have experience with linux and these chips?  There's up to
933MHz available (at ST£62 inc VAT).  The attraction is it's low power 
consumption and in particular capability of running with a passive heatsink.

* Do I assume as Pentium 3 compatible linux will work seamlessly or is this
naive?  Anyone have any links to docs about this?

* I take it gcc doesn't have optimisations for it though, or does it?

* out of interest, anyone have ideas of it's performance

Thanks in advance,

Gavin
