I'm not sure if these are copper or fiber, but here's a list from the 
kernel source code help file:

Alteon AceNIC, 3Com 3c985, NetGear GA620, SGI Gigabit, Farallon PN9000-SX
PCI, Dlink DGE-550T, Dlink DL2000, SMC 9452TX, Dlink DGE500T,
SOHO-GA2000T, NetGear GA621, Hamachi GNIC-II, Packet Engines Yellowfin
Gigabit, SysKonnect (9841, 9842, 9843, 9844, 9821, 9822, 9861, 9862,)
Allied Telesyn AT2970, Broadcom Tigon3...

I'm sure the later kernels have more support.  Manufacturers might have
driver source code to compile as loadable modules.
