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.

Hmmm, very strange. I have an Asus P4P8X SE with a marvell gigabit and it worked on sarge out of the box.
This install was done in May this year I believe.
According to Asus:
Marvell 88E8001 Gigabit Lan Controller
lspci:
0000:02:05.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter (rev 13)

However, the sky2 driver in a recent kernel worked almost well. (it only stoped working after suspend-to-disk).
