Bug#230122: corrections: PCI ID 14e4170d uses ethernet module bcm5700
After testing the tg3 module on this nick, I found that the card did
send a dhcprequest, but does not receive the answer
Broadcom has released a GPL driver, with driver both for 2.4.24, and
for 2.6.0
it is availible from
http://www.broadcom.com/drivers/downloaddrivers.php
I did a added the patch to the debian kernel, but the package remains
untested. I have tested the packages on a 2.4.24-10.00-custom kernel,
and it works fine.
The kernel source is avalible from the skolelinux test-source:
deb ftp://ftp.skolelinux.no/skolelinux woody-test local
the version is 2.4.24-2.skolelinux.1
