Okay, now we're getting somewhere :)

First step will be to get it working on native linux first.

I use :
- RHEL5
- HP ProLiant DL380 G5
- Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 12)

This server works fine with bridge and VLAN (using both native Linux and
Xen).
The default RH driver works fine, but I prefer to use updated bnx2
driver (1.5.10c). I don't have Dell 1950 to test, but if your NIC is the
same model (see lspci) then updated driver should work.

Regards,

Fajar
