at last, i get a response on netbsd-help, seems like xfree may work on 
M10000 hence MII and CL i guess.

good point: mini-itx is going to sell integrated boxes, ready to use, we 
only need to insall NetBSD and NetHENCE patch release. that box is named 
nanode. nice photos on http://www.mini-itx.com/store/default.asp?c=19
bad point: Xfree may not work with netbsd

>> The two boards below seem to use a ProSavage video chipset.
>> 	. VIA EPIA MII (- Integrated VIA Unichrome? 2D/3D graphics with 
>> MPEG-2 Accelerator, motion compensation and duo-view support)

good point: CF card reader usable with photo cameras
bad point: we need to buy the other stuff separately, SDRAM, CD reader, HD 
and barebone (http://www.mini-itx.com/store/default.asp?c=3#eotonashi for 
example).

good point: router capable, 2 ehts
bad point: same as MII above.


any ideas on how to get X working on one of this boards as fast as 
possible would be appreciated.
once i'm sure either X/netbsd works on EPIA N or MII and CL, i buy one to 
make the demo.
