Before I recognized that the OpenBSD bootloader was causing trouble on a very old ECS A900 desknote (Via C3 cpu and Sis video) I tried NetBSD 6.0.1-patch and had trouble with xorg. Apparently xf86-video-sis requires the sis-drm module which is not enabled in the generic kernel. The thought of pulling down the kernel source, compiling a custom kernel and then building a lightweight desktop on an 800mHz Single core cpu was overwhelming.
