Thanks Hrvoje and Stuart all for the valuable info.
There are so many adapters given/updated by Dell every year, maybe we should
update the man pages to add the working ones?
My BOSS-S1 Modular adapter is detected both on 7.4 and current.
PERC H755 Front is indeed also detected with current. I'm sure it was not with
7.4 when I tried yesterday.
This is today dmesg with current (20 Mar) from R650xs:
