I need a 10G network card for my Ubuntu 16.04 machine. I want to know where the list of supported hardware is so I can check before I buy. The card of interest currently is: Myricom 10G-PCIE2-8B2-2S

Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise. If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.

This older post suggests that it is: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/recommendations-for-a-10gb-network-card-4175471913/



The following dual SFP+ adapters all work in Linux:
Broadcom 57810S (bnx2x driver)
Myricom 10G-PCIE2-8B2-2S (myri10ge driver)
Intel 82599, X520-DA2/82599EB, X540-T2 (ixgbe/ixgbevf driver)


The referenced driver exists in Ubuntu 17.10 which you can verify with:



modinfo myri10ge


The required firmware exists in /lib/firmware:



/lib/firmware/myri10ge_eth_big_z8e.dat
/lib/firmware/myri10ge_eth_z8e.dat
/lib/firmware/myri10ge_ethp_big_z8e.dat
/lib/firmware/myri10ge_ethp_z8e.dat
/lib/firmware/myri10ge_rss_eth_big_z8e.dat
/lib/firmware/myri10ge_rss_eth_z8e.dat
/lib/firmware/myri10ge_rss_ethp_big_z8e.dat
