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.
