We have plenty of Dell machines (Optiplex GX280, GX620 etc) which have the
Broadcom BCM5751 chipset over PCI-E, and these work fine with the tg3
driver in SL305 (no fiddling with the initrd is needed here).
Now the boards with PCI-E Marvel-Yukon chipsets (e.g. some Intel mboards)
are a different matter...
