Does anyone know what Avago's attitude towards Open Source is? Any chance we might get some decent drivers for Broadcom gear?

  Given past experience with both Avago and Broadcom, I don't think I would hold your hopes too high; I would bet money that the current attitude you get from Broadcom about drivers will continue if not get worse. Most vendors in the hardware sphere tend to be rather protective of everything they do (fairly or unfairly), and pretty old school,and that sort of attitude doesn't really play well with our open source/libre desires for more transparency in things like drives.
