Hi,

I've got an luser question. :-)
While running 2.4 i was able to use the following broadcom cards just
fine:

Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet Driver bcm5700 with Broadcom NIC
Extension
(NICE) ver.
 6.0.5 (04/14/03)
eth0: Broadcom BCM5703 1000Base-T found at mem fcf10000, IRQ 28, node addr
000bd
be76f62
eth0: Broadcom BCM5703 Integrated Copper transceiver found
eth0: Scatter-gather ON, 64-bit DMA ON, Tx Checksum ON, Rx Checksum ON
eth1: Broadcom BCM5703 1000Base-T found at mem fcf00000, IRQ 29, node addr
000bd
be76f63
eth1: Broadcom BCM5703 Integrated Copper transceiver found
eth1: Scatter-gather ON, 64-bit DMA ON, Tx Checksum ON, Rx Checksum ON
bcm5700: eth0 NIC Link is UP, 100 Mbps full duplex
bcm5700: eth1 NIC Link is UP, 100 Mbps full duplex

Now i build a 2.6.3 kernel and im looking where there is support for these
cards. In menuconfig i went to:

Device Drivers -> Networking Support -> Ethernet 1000mbit

And in here i only see broadcom tigon3 support
And in Ethernet 10-100Mbit i only see:

Broadcom 4400 ethernet support

No where appears to be bcm5703 support.
Where should i be in the config of the kernel to enable bcm5703 support?
Thanks,

Mipam.

The tigon3 driver supports the whole bcm57XX series gigabit chips.
The core chip in the 57XX series is code named "tigon3", the successor
to the Alteon Acenic tigon and tigon2 chips.
