Dunno. Look in the list archives for earlier discussions on the topic.
It seems AMD audio is a clone of Intel audio, which is why Intel audio
works for NForce. Since both audio and ethernet match, it seems unlikely
that Nvidia would license a completely different ethernet chip, but who
knows?

Anyway, I want to put as much info out there as possible for someone to
use as they wish. So here's another tip:

00:04.0 Ethernet controller: nVidia Corporation nForce2 Ethernet
Controller (rev a1)
00: de 10 66 00 07 00 b0 00 a1 00 00 02 00 00 00 00
10: 00 00 00 e0 01 c4 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
20: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 62 14 0c 57
30: 00 00 00 00 44 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0b 01 01 14
40: 62 14 0c 57 01 00 02 fe 00 01 00 00 04 00 00 00
50: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
60: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
70: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
80: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
90: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
a0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
b0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
c0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
d0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
e0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
f0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

Note the first row reads:
00: de 10 66 00 07 00 b0 00 a1 00 00 02 00 00 00 00

Before nvnet loads, the same row reads:
00: de 10 66 00 03 00 b0 00 a1 00 00 02 00 00 00 00

Don't know if that is significant.
