Hi Gerd, Thanks for pointing this out. Is it possible that Radeon HD 8470D will work 100% under FreeBSD in the coming days ? (My box is FreeBSD 11.0 Release) If it is not likely, I'll keep it in mind to purchase a separate graphics card as a long-term solution. The problem with that is there seems to be no card on the FreeBSD list currently available at Amazon/Flipkart. The Sapphire AMD/ATI R5 230 2 GB DDR3 card seems like a good fit for my motherboard, but I have no idea whether FreeBSD supports that family. Regards Manish Jain
