Hi, Harri
Thanks for helping.
I got the latest sk98lin driver source from http://www.syskonnect.com/.
I also installed the kernel-source-2.6.8.deb package, because installing
the sk98lin driver needs to recompile the kernel.
When running the sk98lin install.sh script (compiling the kernel), I got
an error:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
scripts/mod/empty.c:1: error: code model `kernel' not supported in the
32 bit mode

It's most probably because my CPUs (Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz) are
64bits, but the compiler is default to -m32 instead of
-m64.
Shall I change the /usr/src/linux/Makefile to use -m64? and how?
Thanks!

Xiaolin,
I have a Tyan K8S with built-in Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5704 NiCs that
came with a sk98lin driver on the CD. I discovered this driver is
substantively the same as the tg3
driver that's in the kernel and have been using that instead. You might
give it a try.
Now, if you're not building your own kernel, or have difficulties
compiling it for 64-bit,
this won't help you. I simply use
# make-kpkg -rev 1 kernel_image modules_image
It creates a deb package (or more if you have external modules). To run,
modprobe tg3.
Cheers,
Dave

Did you try the most recent driver? I would suggest to check
Documentation/networking/sk98lin.txt in the kernel sources.
Or look at http://www.syskonnect.com/
Good luck
