Kernel (uname -r): 2.6.24-23-server
Distribution: Ubuntu



This card has open source driver on the kernel but it did not work correctly for me. It maybe that the card will not work correctly on PCI 2.1 slots. I tried it in 2 servers without success. "eth1: Link auto-negotiation speed 1000M bps full duplex failed to detect cable link" is my error in dmesg. The card works until a large file is transfered then it starts disconnecting.
