After ordering a stack of Dell PE 850 boxes I found out, by experience,

there was some discussion about this on the pfSense (firewall software
built on 6.0) a week or so ago. Apparently there is some kernel patch
that allows the PE850 to work. perhaps digging thru the pfSense mailing
list archives will help find it.
Not sure the status of having that patch merged back into the FreeBSD
main code. I certainly hope it will be, given how popular these boxes
are.
If the patch is submitted as a PR it will help a lot I think.
