anyone with onboard LAN based on the Qualcomm Killer E2205

I am considering a motherboard with an onbaord Qualcomm Killer E2205 chipset.  I have only used Intel in the past.  Does anyone have this hardware and have you experienced anything negative under Linux?  I can't find any info as to whether or not the kernel supports this natively...

There's native support, the alx driver, in the kernel since 3.10 I think, so it'll work out-of-the-box. Don't know anything beyond that, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work fine.
