Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Compatible Gigabit Ethernet on Linux
I have had excellent results with a couple of Intel e1000 cards. lspci says this about the chipset and such. Intel Corporation 82541GI/PI Gigabit Ethernet Controller I'm sure the chipset is different now, as this card is about 4 years old, and you would probably want to find a PCI-X card now, but at the time these were among the better cards regarding latency, cpu usage, etc. Most of these cards should work out of the box on any distro. I have also used a Linksys 1064 (not the exact number), but it did not have PXE booting built-in, and there were no etherboot drivers at the time, so this would not be a good fit for a terminal. For the server it provided good results, but I believe I had to manually add the kernel module since it would not autodetect. -Todd Daniel Mealha Cabrita wrote: We (at work) have lots of 3C2000T.

There are some very cheap crappy banana gigabit NICs, even PCI-X models. These are easily identifiable. -- Avoid them. Even if you manage to make them work under Linux, you can end with a card which works only at 100M (like we did with a certain chipset once) and/or with extreme CPU usage and/or with stability issues.

Hi, the fewest(none) problems i had with Intel 1gbit Desktop Adapter ~30euro/40$ but i guess it is a bit overkill. Well depends on what you are planing. The Module for linux is called afair e1000.
