Hi Florian. Are you experiencing the same problem? We found that
Francesco's problem was that the firmware of his device was missing. Do
you see :
eth0: No firmware running
messages?

Hi Matt!
No, I was just browsing the regression list and found this entry but
couldn't associate any action with it.
This clears that up, thanks for the information and I will close this
bug.

Flo

I have contacted Broadcom asking for support and apparently there is
no way to fix the problem. Now I have a couple of questions: the use
of tg3 driver without a firmware expose the NIC to some risks or not?
And is there any chance to have the PCI IDs added back to tg3 module?
I do not want to modify and recompile the module at every version
bump.
Thanks for the support :)

That's the plan. It's on my TODO list to add support back in.
