I use Broadcom's driver for my bcm5702:
http://www.broadcom.com/drivers/downloaddrivers.php
They work great and enable all the hardware offload features. I used
version 2.2.34 on a server that had a 300 day uptime and it performed
flawlessly; perfectly stable and FAST.

I just ordered an eval of a IBM server. This server is supposed to
have a Dual-Port NetXtreme Gigabit network card. Anyone have any idea
what drivers I'm going to need for this sucker?
:wq!
