Earlier, I asked for help with a Linksys EG1032 gigabit NIC. The current version of this card uses a Marvell 88E8003 chip, instead of the National Semiconductor chip used previously. It turns out that the sk(4) driver works with this chip, both in 4.11 and 5.4. I'm currently using my new Linksys card successfully in a mid-April 5.4-STABLE testing system, via the "sk" driver built into the generic kernel. In my 4.11-RELEASE box, I'm using the "sk" driver as well (this time loaded as a kernel module) to handle the Marvell 88E8001 chip on the system's Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard. Here are the relevant lines of output during system startup on the 4.11-RELEASE box. skc0: <Marvell Gigabit Ethernet> port 0x9000-0x90ff mem 0xe9000000-0xe9003fff irq 5 at device 4.0 on pci1 skc0: Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter sk0: <Marvell Semiconductor, Inc.
