Sorry for not providing more info.
I am testing the motherboard using the SuSE kernel 2.4.19-16. I have compiled all the Broadcom drivers in the kernel but they won't work. The kernel only has drivers for Broadcom BCM5700 and Trigon3, both are 1000Mbit nics. The nic on the Asus A7V8X motherboard is the BCM4401 10/100 Mbit chip.
hmm.. I was considering buying this mb myself... according to the following link this new motherboard features a BroadCom 5702 Gigabit Ethernet chip. http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.html?i=1696&p=3 I didn't even know they shipped the A7V8X with less thn that, if it's just a regular 100-chip I might as well wait a while.... :-/ What does "lspci -vv" show for the device? Did you know it wasn't the gigabit chip on it? /Adam
