Nope, you won't ever find a bcm5700 in a high-density blade, since a
real bcm5700 requires a separate PHY chip.  hmm.

Looking at your linux device-configuration/ACPI output, the Linux
*driver* is for the bcm57xx gig-e family, what you have is a bcm5714.
There's support in bge(4) in NetBSD-current for the 5714/5715 and
(untested) for 5780, and an incomplete backport (PCI-ids, PHY support)
in NetBSD-3-stable.  I can arrange a pullup, or (if you can rebuild a
kernel/install media) send a patch.

I don't know enough about your other problems (PS/2 kbd on blade,
sata) to comment.

SERDES? are these really optical gig-e? I doubt the NetBSD driver
supports them.
