 Hi, this week i've successfully installed haiku in my computer, which is
 an "Acer Aspire 5630", really nice, it runs fast and pretty stable!

 but i've got a problem with my Broadcom 4401 NIC (i've tried the GPL
 bcm44xx driver), it seems to be loaded, but i can't configure it via DHCP
 or manually, i'll put some information about my NIC here:

 {{{
 paulo@samsa:~$ lspci |grep Eth
 06:01.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX
 (rev 02)
 paulo@samsa:~$ lspci -nm|grep 06:01.0
 06:01.0 "0200" "14e4" "170c" -r02 "1025" "0090"
 }}}

 i know some C programming, but nothing about driver and OS programming, so
 i couldn't figure out what's going wrong here
