Hmmmm didn't know that, but it seems to be coming (from
http://www.hailfinger.org/carldani/linux/patches/forcedeth/)


UPDATE:
NVidia has contributed gigabit support to forcedeth, so I'll work
on integrating their patch and fixing remaining bugs in it. If you want
to try it, download forcedeth_gigabit_try19.txt and apply it against
the latest 2.6 kernel.
