I had a similar case, where modprobe tg3 said something like " no such 
device is present".

lspci -vn told me that the device had pciid 14e41659 which wasn't listed 
in /usr/share/discover/pci.lst 

Adding the line 
14e41659        ethernet        tg3     NetXtreme  BCM95721Gigabit 
Ethernet

to  /usr/share/discover/pci.lst and upgrading the kernel to 2.4.26-smp 
helped. 

Then I bugged this,
