from what I can gather from the tg3 nic driver, it appears that the broadcom 5704 nic is supported - albeit not to the degree where the tg3 driver is actually usefull. The major/minor PCI codes are in the tg3 driver. The tg3 driver just does not recognise the device. The tg3 driver also failed to recognise the NIC's under RH9. I suppose I now have to consider this a bug, rather that a feature request. Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you. |
