I'm buying parts for a computer and want to make sure that the core
components are as freebsd friendly as possible. So far, I've decided
on a core 2 quad q6600 and I'm choosing the motherboard now. However
it seems many of the popular motherboards have Realtek ALC888 as
built-in audio and Realtek 8111B as built-in LAN.
I read at:
http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/CURRENT/hardware/i386/article.html
that the sound should work but I couldn't find any info on the LAN.
Does anyone on the list have any experience with it?
By the way, I'm going to run FreeBSD 7.

Aloha,
Realtek 8169 is a 1000 M and works on 7.* and 8.* I think 8111 maybe
old 100M ? Are you sure about the Realtek model #?
