A somewhat pedantic question... some grepping in a kernel tree suggests the obvious name "netptune" is at least already taken for PCI ID macros:

hpcpc105:~/linux-2.6.23-rc5# grep -i neptune ./drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_hw.h
#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_NEPTUNE       0xf0f5
#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_NEPTUNE_SCSP  0xf0f6
#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_NEPTUNE_DCSP  0xf0f7

and shows-up in comments elsewhere, but that same (perhaps too cursory?) search didn't seem to find "neptune" used as an actual module/driver name, so why "niu?" To what does niu translate anyway?

sincerely,

now left with the quandry of whether to run netperf against a driver for a card from a .com other than his own or an OEM :) On the plus side though, this driver has no EULA restrictions :)
