 OK, I'm pretty sure this is a GEM, but with a different
PCI ID than what's in the kernel. I noticed that NetBSD's
if_gm.c recognizes the GEM3, which is what you might have.

 If you're keen, you could binary-patch the kernel
to recognize the variant. Simply locate the GEM2 device 
ID, 0x0024106b and change it to 0x0032106b.

later,

Peter.
