      I have update -->pci.ids

      Now command lspci check that :
      09:00:0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5756ME Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express

      Command :
      lspci -s 09:00.0 -n
      Return:
      09:00.0 0200: 14e4:1674

      I check modules.pcimap with this data and no return

      The kernel is old ?

      Thanks for your help

        Did you try the -nk version or the one in experimental ?
        http://opensource.nchc.org.tw/clonezilla-live/experimental/
        Both of the versions use kernel 2.6.22.

        BTW, you should use "modprobe tg3" instead of "insmod tg3", since with insmod, if I am right, you should give absolute path for module, like
        insmod /lib/modules/2.6.18-5-486/kernel/drivers/net/tg3.ko
