Hi,

Can anyone help me activate the Marvel 88E8056 gigabit Ethernet
controller on my system? It does not seem to be recognized:

Here are two pertinent entries of "lspci" output:

The first Ethernet device shown is the 88E8056.

The second device, the 88E8001 works, though the system configures the
wrong module (a blacklisted one at that!) to drive it.


What can I do to activate this device?


Thanks.
