My laptop has a Via C3 processor. I use Debian with a self-compiled 2.4.19 kernel, and have had absolutely no problems with the chip at all (quite the opposite, in fact). I had to compile for "686" in order for 3D acceleration to work (the kernel has an option specifically for the Via C3), but I assume that was a kernel problem rather than a hardware problem.
