Hi

I would like to contribute a patch to add ASUS A8N-SLI Premium to the 
list of boards that require the quirk to limit DMA to 32bit in the 
skge.c module.

It took 2 hours of fiddling with my machine last night to get the 
network card working - the lights were on but no-one was at home.

I never would have found it if not for the original bug listed on redhat 
for the Gigabyte motherboard.

Kind regards

Shannon.
