Currently the only source for these drivers I know of is the binary ones supplied by dell. Dell has binary modules and also a kernel with support for this controller compiled into it. In order to get these you need to use the RedHat 6.2 disks which can be downloaded from the dell support site. In theory it should be not too difficult to extract the kernel out of these disks and put it onto a debian rescue disk and just use debian with the kernel they supply for redhat. I would be happy to send you the kernel and modules that work on this system. You'll have to build the debian install disks yourself. Alternatively, you can break down and run RH on the system.
