Description
BCM5671 has the device id 1677, which was supported by CR 6282121 in the
middle of 2005, but its alias was not included at that time. Because of this , one has to manually edit a machine's /etc/driver_aliases to include this entry :

bge "pci14e4,1677"
in order to use this card.
BCM5751 is a pci express device, which device ID is pciex14e4,1677. We found in recent versions of S10, it won't be recognized any more since we declared it as pci14e4,1677 in /etc/driver_alias.
The plugged chip type should be 5751, bug type is PCI-X
