2.6.12: yukon2 nics still not supported...

Hi !

I recently had to boot a brand new system using a Marvel Yukon2 NIC (sk98lin) driver which is not supported by the latest kernel (pci ids = 11ab:4361).

So I compiled the GPLed driver available from Syskonnect, http://www.syskonnect.com/syskonnect/support/driver/d0102_driver.html, which works perfectly.

So, I wonder why the sk98lin driver is not up to date in the 2.6.x kernels ?

Cheers,
