I don't believe the motherboard or the BIOS have anything to do with, simply because
I have been successfully using the SMC Etherpower with three different Motherboards
- ASUS TX97-XE, MSI K7 Pro, Gigagbyte GA-71XE4 -
and (at least) three different kernels: 2.0.x, 2.2.18, 2.4.0.
Something between 2.4.0 and 2.4.3 breaks the epic100 driver. That's it.

Cheers,
Stefan
