Benny,

I think that is the same network card I have on my Intel motherboard
for my phone servers.  One weird thing I have had happen before on
older trunk builds is they won't get a dhcp address on boot, but when
I restart the network adapter it grabs an address right away.

I don't think I had to do anything to get it to work in .6.6 or .6.7
on my test box.
