Ethernet on a Compaq Proliant DL360 G3

Hi 
A few months ago I asked about installing Debian on a Compaq Proliant DL360 G3 
machine. Some of you told me you installed it and everything went ok.
Now the time for me to install Debian has arrived :P I mean, my boss bought 
the machines, and now I'm trying to install Debian on them. I've found no 
problem installing raid controller, scsi and anything more but the ethernet 
card. 
I can read in the specifications that the card  is "Dual, NC7781 PCI-X Gigabit 
10/100/1000", but I've not found anything like this in the kernel. A nearby 
machine (also a dl360 g3) has RH installed, and it use Tigon3 driver (tg3), 
and work properly. I tried the same kernel module, but altough it loads up 
without any error (modprobe tg3, or adding it to /etc/modules), and it lets 
me configure the card (ifconfig goes ok), after that I can not ping any host 
(network is not accesible).
I mean, everything seems to be ok, but there is no result.

Has everyone installed Debian on a Compaq Proliant DL360 G3? What ethernet 
card did you configure?

Thank you very much
