I never noticed any problems with it, except for the front panel LCD display which would probably require a custom driver. I never tried X, but the console worked fine. dmesg from both 5.4 and 6.0 and output of "pciconf -lv" attached. The motherboard inside seems to be unbranded, so I guess it'll have to go under a "Sun" entry on the website. >How-To-Repeat: Buy one and install FreeBSD :) >Fix: --- v20z-5.4-dmesg begins here --- Copyright (c) 1992-2005 The FreeBSD Project.
