Eric,
IIRC, the SysKonnect official GPL driver attempts to support two different
chipsets / possibly has other coding issues as well. I think this is the
reason SysKonnect's driver is still out of tree. I think some netdev folks
might be working on newer drivers, but I haven't been keeping track honestly.
Cheers,
Chase
