This device was not listed in the 2.6.17 sky2 driver and is not included
in the 2.6.18 version either. Either you modified your 2.6.17 kernel or
your distro did.

It is detected with the latest 2.6.17 kernel automatically [during
udev] and works fine.

You can simply add the device ID to the list in 2.6.18. Patches to do
this are already on their way to mainline for 2.6.19.

This won't be fixed as part of 2.6.18.x?  Looking at the source for
the latest gentoo-sources in the 2.6.17 stream I don't see ID 4364 in
the source for sky2.c [sky2_id_table[]].  So why is it detected and
working there but not in 2.6.18?

I'll try adding the device to the table and see what happens.

Hint:  ICH8 was "fixed" between 2.6.17 and 2.6.18 and all of a sudden
my gige stops working which is attached off the ICH8.
