The Gigabit LAN version of the Asus P4PE uses a Broadcom 5702 chip. Look at you board and make sure you see BCM5702 on that chip. If you don't, you will likely see BCM4401 which is the 10/100 Fast Ether version. I have the BCM4401 on mine. In any event, just mount your ASUS cdrom and cd into the drivers/Linux directory and copy off the bcmXXXX.tar.gz drivers you need. If you dont have the 5700 drivers on the cd for some reason, just pull them down from www.asus.com . Do a make install and then load the module with a modprobe:

/sbin/modprobe bcm4400

(what I use for my 10/100 chip. for your 1000 chip, you will use, e.g. bcm5700 or bcm5702)
