have you considered trying the new SLED 11 ?

BCM5784M is a "Broadcom" network card - the "tg3" module ought to do it.

 

Take a look at this post for some details of how I had issues with it originally.

 

From memory, SUSE can add a new NIC in via YaST - as long as you pick the right vendor/model.
