Hi Phil, I'm not sure if this helps. I recently setup an IBM xseries server which has an onboard Broadcom NIC. Well, mdk9.2 recognize it as tg3 (a driver said developed by redhat). But, with the server comes a driver CD of the NIC, and in the readme it says that while the tg3 driver works ok, it's better to replace it with a driver from the manufacture (mdk recognize it then by bcm5700).
