What about this then? VT6105M
Its not listed at all under either 6.3 or 7.0, yet it works in M0n0wall (based on 6.3).

How to find what driver THAT NIC uses....have three of them on my very very tiny ALIX machine (AMD Geode). Would like to check if it can handle VLAN's...so I can play router on a stick if I feel to.

Thanks
