Thank you.  So I have a good hope of at least ethernet working; at
worst I can fix issues myself (hopefully).

Here is one realtek issue: https://www.illumos.org/issues/7255

The NVidia Solaris driver 387.22 from 2017.10.30 lists GeForce GTX
1060 as supported, so I have some hope of getting that to work.

Is there any chance the other vital things have issues: monitor,
keyboard, hdd?  I don't care about the on-board mouse if I can use
USB.
