Oops, I didn't notice you were using a dual-G4. I've not yet merged the
GMAC changes for this machine in 2.4, but if you rsync my current 2.2
tree, you should have a working GMAC driver (and no PCI conflicts BTW).
I'm waiting for some older patches to be accepted by Linus before hacking
more on the bk tree.

Ben.
