Quick Question - Gigabit Ethernet


Getting ready to deploy a server running Slackware 11 and going to be using Gigabit Ethernet. I'm looking at this Intel card:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/INTEL-PRO-10-1...QQcmdZViewItem

Can anyone forsee any problems? I know the blurb says it supports linux - just looking for obvious pitfalls.

Thanks,

Stuart.

That's kinda what the HCL is for.

One thing I don't get is that one (of the four) reviews says that the card doesn't work at all for them, but they still recommend it!?? Weird.

Ah thanks.

Didn't see the HCL option (must look at website in full next time).

Thanks again.

Stuart.
