It's all been said, but I'll confirm that the first place I look
for FC cards is the GFS support page. That being said, there can
be a little bit of confusion, since there are 3 Qlogic drivers.
Last I knew, I heard secondhand that Qlogic and Chris Loveland 
were talking with the final objective being that Qlogic would take 
over the driver support. I know that Qlogic has decided to fully
support linux. I am not suggesting that you should necessarily 
select Qlogic over Interphase.
