Default RH7.2 Troubles Installing BroadCom BCM5700 NetXtreme on HP D530

Hello

I can't install a NIC driver.
Could somebody help me please ?

I have completely setup Red Hat 7.2 on a
"hp compaq business desktop d530 series"
but the NIC hasn't been detected.

During the installation process,
I choosed personnalized and all packages.

The NIC is a
"Integrated Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet for HP"

And when I tried to setup it
with the driver from broadband.com,
I got those messages :

b57um.c:2523: storage size of `eregs' isn't known
b57um.c:2523: warning: unused variable `eregs'
make: *** [b57um.o] Erreur 1
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.9063 (%build)




The HP NIC spec URL is :
http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/q...11692_div.HTML

The driver URL is
http://www.broadcom.com/drivers/downloaddrivers.php
(I choosed the 7.1.9 version)

Here is a excerpt of the documentation I followed :

1. Install the source RPM package:
rpm -ivh bcm5700-<version>.src.rpm
2. CD to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your kernel:
cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}
rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec


And final full output is :

+ cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD

Default Re: RH7.2 Troubles Installing BroadCom BCM5700 NetXtreme on HP D530

I mostly would like to known
if it's only a matter of version
because the error appears in compilation

Otherwise, the hardware is detected :

# lspci
05:02.0 Ethernet controller: BROADCOM Corporation: Unknown device 1696 (rev
03)
