I am attempting to use the 3c996b-t nic which uses the broadcom BCM5701TKHB
chip (yes, I hate broadcom too).  I had been trying to get this card working
using the BGE(0) driver for a few ddays now, with extremely limited success.
Apparently the 3c996-t card works just fine, but the driver for it is too
different to work with the 3c996b-t.

 

I found this post in the archives, but it doesn't seem anyone ever did
anything to find a solution.

 

Thanks

Dan
