There is an experimental PPC4xx NAPI EMAC driver, which has 440GX 
support (GigE, TAH, scatter-gather, jumbo) for 2.4.30-pre1 (2.6 
version will follow shortly).

Patch can be found at http://kernel.ebshome.net/.

Please, note, full 440GX support is newly added feature and therefore 
don't consider it stable yet. I'm in process of testing it. So, use 
it at your own risk.
