- My machine has an i219 phy which the developer can't complete https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-n...msg006094.html. I don't know how close this is phy is tied to skylake in generall. For now, I reuse an old NE2000 10Mb/s card from the attic.

- I'm not sure about the best cpu flags for pkgsrc. The pkgsrc guide https://www.netbsd.org/docs/pkgsrc/configuring.html suggests to consult devel/cpuflags. This program suggests -march=native which is only supported by gcc on linux.

- the intel xorg driver does not detect my cpu's HD510 chipset

I tried netbsd 8's snapshot with its xserver as well as the modular x server from pkgsrc-2017Q3.

Perhaps I need some intel binary blobs https://hardware.slashdot.org/story/...g-binary-blobs?

Anyone had more luck?
