I have one of those cards also, but it's sitting on the
sidelines as of now. Boots up fine then for some reason unknown
to myself, the card once worked; ML 8.2, RH 9.0, SuSE 8.2, then
no more. It has a Broadcom 5904 chipset. Try to ifconfig, arp,
netstat(s), to see if your packets go anywhere if that helps.
