As mentioned in the kerneltrap thread above, all that is needed to get the 88E8056 NIC working is to add an entry for the card to the sky2_id_table array in sky2.c. So far, I've made do by manually patching the sky2.ko file, but having the NIC work out of the box would be nice, especially since it's the only NIC on the motherboard I have (Gigabyte GA-965P-S3), and I don't expect that most users are able to add support for the NIC themselves.
