Broadcom is the biggest player in this market; eBay item # 150455393659 is one
such example and only needs a x1 PCI-e slot. The BCM57xx drivers are in-kernel
and fairly robust. This is the chip used by my laptop:
09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5752 Gigabit
Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02)
Subsystem: Dell Device 01c8
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 30
Memory at dcef0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Expansion ROM at <ignored> [disabled]
Capabilities: [48] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [50] Vital Product Data
Capabilities: [58] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/8 Maskable- 64bit+
Capabilities: [d0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting
Capabilities: [13c] Virtual Channel
Kernel driver in use: tg3
Kernel modules: tg3
There's also an HP NC110T on eBay ( item # 140423322343 ). This card uses the
Intel 82572G1 chipset, and it is a server-type adapter. The eBay one is
actually more expensive than one I found online a few minutes ago NIB, so
google for it.
