Precision M6400 and Linux Automation

Hi, we just got a Dell Precision M6400 in.  It appears that the Linux automation does not like the Broadcom 57xx nic that is in this machine (which is odd because we have other older machines that work fine with the Broadcom 57xx drivers).  If I boot the machine to DOS the UNDI driver works fine which leads me to believe that the nic is fine.

Does anyone know if there are other drivers out there that may work better?  I went to Dell's website as well as Broadcom's website and neither of them seem to provide drivers in .ko format which is what Altiris Boot Disk Creator needs.  Broadcom's website also indicates that the "bnx2" driver should be sufficient, however, it is not working in my case.

Any ideas?

Other information:  We are running 6.9 SP1 MP1  (6.9.366)
