Hi,

The builtin ethernet on my Sawtooth G4 seems to have died during a recent move.

I can't get a link light on my switch and ifconfig under OS X 10.2.1 says that the port
(en0) is "inactive". I thought that it might be a bad cable, but I've checked this using
three different cables, and all the cables work with with my PC and PowerBook but
not with the G4.

I think that my only option is to get a PCI ethernet card. Does anyone know of a good
ethernet card for a G4 running OS X? I'd like one that supports deep sleep, but any
card that works under OS X will do.

Thanks,
