I think that the CONFIG_BONDING option in the kernel will help you do what you
want. Have a look at /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/bonding.txt
http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-bond-or-team-multiple-network-interfaces-nic-into-single-interface.html
Without bonding, using Trivial/True link equaliser (teql) you could try
something like this:
http://compton.nu/2009/12/per-packet-load-balancing-with-linux/
http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.loadshare.html
From a cursory look the kernel bonding seems to be the latest method of doing
this. Please let us know what you come up with as the best method for
achieving what you want.
