Hello I am thinking of buying this card to and wanted to know if this NIC is supported. The card is a Sun Microsystems PCI-X Quad-Port Gigabit Ethernet Adapter QGEXPCI 501-6738-10. Can't find any info on how well the card plays with centos and also proxmox ve (if any of you use that distro ) If things don't seem to work I may bite the bullet and buy an Intel card thanks Rafeal Stewart

My gut is starting to tell me its not worth the time to replace it, if this Sun NIC doesnt play nice with Linux. I also intend to use the card with Proxmox VE which is debian based. ~ Rafeal Stewart
