Hi

Not in the current version. Doesn't look that difficult to add though, 
so I might at some point have a go at implementing it. Just need to figure
out how to test it, I assume there's ACPI hell involved :/

Dave would know best since he wrote the beast, but I believe it's 
written using bcm4400 as "documentation" and really based on the
generic Linux ethernet driver template (so tg3.c with tg3 bits changed 
into b44 bits :-) )
