The linux driver tells me :

/**
 *      sis96x_get_mac_addr: - Get MAC address for SiS962 or SiS963 model
 *      @pci_dev: the sis900 pci device
 *      @net_dev: the net device to get address for
 *
 *      SiS962 or SiS963 model, use EEPROM to store MAC address. And EEPROM
 *      is shared by
 *      LAN and 1394. When access EEPROM, send EEREQ signal to hardware first
 *      and wait for EEGNT. If EEGNT is ON, EEPROM is permitted to be access
 *      by LAN, otherwise is not. After MAC address is read from EEPROM, send
 *      EEDONE signal to refuse EEPROM access by LAN.
 *      The EEPROM map of SiS962 or SiS963 is different to SiS900.
 *      The signature field in SiS962 or SiS963 spec is meaningless.
 *      MAC address is read into @net_dev->dev_addr.
 */

So we definitly are missing the support for the SiS 962/963 southbridge.
