Dear Rick,
Yes. I have downloaded the linuxppc-2.4 kernel. There is really the temac 
support. Thanks a lot for your information. 

Also. MontaVista will release the pro 4.0 based on 2.6 in the end of this 
month. I think in this version, Temac will be included. Temac will be more 
popularly supported in the following versions, I think. 

Regards
Ming

kernel tree from source.mvista.com (using rsync), which I believe has the 
xilinx_gige directory and menuconfig entries.
