They are running cat6 and setting up gigabit ethernet

to avoid in Fedora, or do they all mostly work like
pretty much every other kind of more ordinary NIC?

    
I ordered two D-Link DGE-530T yesterday - I will
report back !!!
I understand that they support jumbo frames (9000) and VLAN tags.

Then comes the setting up of jumbo frames, VLAN's, VLAN tags and how to
configure dynamic DNS with VLANs !!!!

Don't order NX1101 from Asus. They do work, but you'll have a hard time getting the driver to work in the first place.
And second, there's something wrong with multicast with that driver. So it's not recommendable :)

I'd suggest Intel NICs, those usually work without any incident.
