I didn't know about the 'fec' adapter (might be a good starting point). 
 I have a requirement (from a corporate project)
to see "Teaming Adapters"  (or faster etherchannels) for a network 
switch I am developing.  There doesn't seem to be
a driver at the same level as Intel has on the Windoze environment.  I 
want to make a design overview before I start and
would be interested in any possible reviewers,  Please email if you are 
interested (for the moment clusters is on hold! :-()
