>Description:
DELL E521 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ 
BIOS 1.1.4

Update on response to:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=105196&cat=


Installation is smooth, no problems, no quirks needed.

No sound, I tried the snd_hda driver from:
http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/lowlatency/
I have wrongly submitted a PR to Stable on that. It is closed but one may browse  it for information purpose:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=109132

DVD-RW works like a charm with growisofs (/dev/cd1) for DVDs and burncd (/dev/acd1) for CDs. But, for the time being, one needs to add /etc/rc.local in order to make them available:
++++++++++
atacontrol detach ata3
sleep 2
atacontrol attach ata3
sleep 1
atacontrol detach ata4
sleep 2
atacontrol attach ata4
++++++++++

Network card runs well, I have been streaming media and transfering data without   a single complain. True that I need to change my HUB in order to test the Gigabit thing... 

Video, well, nVidia driver is giving me (under sort of heavy load):
% glxgears 
10540 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2106.152 FPS
10540 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2105.522 FPS
10540 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2104.844 FPS
10441 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2086.962 FPS
14740 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2947.058 FPS
18307 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3660.819 FPS
18480 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3695.081 FPS
18367 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3670.724 FPS
18447 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3688.362 FPS
No bad.

I have not tested the card reader yet.

This machine also works with 6.2-RELEASE AMD64.
Installation equally smooth.

But no nVidia driver and some ports related to linux don't either. Also, some commercial tools I need (require Linux 32 bits emulation) won't work.  

So I stay on i386, thus far.
