Which version of the ixgbe driver is included in 5.6? I went through all the RHEL5 release notes, but they only ever state that the driver was updated, not which devices was added.
This device is not supported up to CentOS 5.5 (2.0.44-k2), but the latest driver from the Intel web site works fine (3.2.10).

This does not mean it's not supported it's just not in the pci-id database. You could try to update just the pci-db with: # update-pciids
We've used 82599 on the normal 5.5 kernel no problems (2.0.44-k2). With the 5.6 kernel (-238) you get: 2.0.84-k2
