HP NC373i unsupported..?

[Bert-Jan]

Replying to my own question.. I found the B0 version of this adapter is 
intentionally disabled in the driver.
I've commented out the case that catches the 5708_B0 and I'm recompiling 
the kernel.
As this server has run for years without problems I'm hoping the nic 
will work just fine. Maybe it's disabled because someone else had 
problems with it that I'm about to run into..

Will keep you posted...
