RE: Debian support for Marvell Yukon Gigabit Ethernet NIC?
Hi,
I've tried compiling it into the kernel, as a module (module loaded but still no "eth0"), and tried the other modules as well, but none worked. I now plan on getting another NIC and using that instead of the on board one while this Marvell Yukon thing gets sorted out (I really need internet).
Has anybody had problems with 3COM or Intel NICs? If so, please let me know, otherwise I will purchase one of them when I leave work tonight. Yes, I know I can check in the kernel config and see which NICs are listed in "Network device support", but then the Marvell Yukon NIC was listed there also, and THAT didn't work.
Thanks for your help,
-Glen

I have an Asus board with VIA Athlon64 chipset. I tried the drivers from their homepage (and from their partners) but it almost never worked for me, it simply refused to detect the card. However, the sky2 driver in a recent kernel worked almost well. (it only stoped working after suspend-to-disk).
