Shahar hi,

How about just popping in a recent livecd and checking it out?
>From my recent kernel compiling experiences i saw that the latest kernels
come with a LOT of extensions (to include in the kernel or as modules) for
handling a wide variety of controllers.
Also, is this a dedicated controller (pci/pci-e) or built in to the
motherboard?
