Hi All,

unsupported adaptec  ANA7711F fiber Ethernet cards. What should i do 
with the kernel
bridge source. Plz give me some  pointers.

You need to get/build/find a ethernet device driver. Bridging expects
the device to look like a ethernet device and interfaces with it.
There is a linux driver on adaptec's web site but it is a huge TOE type device
and probably won't work for bridging.  TOE is crap
