Thank you keith.  I've been able to use the driver from the broadcom
website, at least with Ubuntu 10.04.  Fedora14 has a working driver
included.  As you say, though there is only one interface.   I once saw
a fedora 10 kernel get wdged in some odd state where it was sending
packets out the wrong vlan.  Ever since that time, I'm pretty insistant
that the Internet side of a firewall be on a completely seperate
interface and switch and not just on a seperate vlan.  It just feels
more secure that way.

Thanks,
Nataraj
