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.
