Currently, I have my eye on the Tyan Tomcat 815ef motherboard because it has two 100 Mbps Intel NICs built in. However, Tyan's web site states that one is an 82559, and the other is an 82562EM using Intel's ICH2. I know the 82559 will run fine with the fxp driver, but I don't know if the 82562EM is "compatible enough" for the fxp driver to find it. Does anyone have any experience with this board to know if the second port will be recognized? Thanks in advance! -- Paul A.
