Does this card not work with the "sky2" driver (included) I'm not sure
marvell's sk98lin even compiles on new kernels.

Yes, that struck me as odd too. My machine came with a similar card, a
"Marvell 88E8053 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller", and everything just
worked out of the box. It is using the sky2 driver.

When I first noticed the problem, a google search found evidence of others having the same problem - for example, see
http://kerneltrap.org/node/7135

Subsequently, I found documentation on Marvell's website explaining how to install the sk98lin driver. I have tried 2 different approaches explained in their documentation but have not been successful thus far.
