From what I found, it looks like this box has a sis650 chipset.
This isn't supported in NetBSD 1.6.1, but please try the install media and
kernel at
ftp://antioche.lip6.fr/pub/bouyer/tmp/sis/NetBSD-1.6.1_RC2/

You can install the 1.6.1 userland on top of this, but keep the
1.6.1_RC2 kernel from here, or compile a new one with the patch you'll
find in this directory.
