What's weird is that they packaged the actual binaries as a bunch of small ISOs. At this point I'd probably build them from source if all else fails :) . On Thu, May 2, 2013 at 12:51 PM, Yves S. Garret wrote: > My gut guess is that it's just going to work. Most of the networking > stuff most L

My gut guess is that it's just going to work. Most of the networking stuff most Linux distros have down pat (unless we're talking about something really rare/weird). I looked at the file itself, the license is GPL. On Thu, May 2, 2013 at 12:45 PM, Ray Van Dolson wrote: > On Thu, May 02, 2013

2013-05-02 Thread Ray Van Dolson
Anyone know off the top of their heads if this (AT-2972SX) fiber network card will work out of the box with CentOS 6.x? Sounds like it's a Broadcom-based card, so perhaps it will, or maybe something exists for it in elrepo? Hoping to avoid needing to build custom drivers from source. Ray ___
