When you say "the driver recognizes the name ..." what do you mean? There is no code in the driver to print the branding strings of the devices. I'm guessing you are you using kudzu? You can also double check with lspci. > "Unknown device 10d3"? Any ideas? Again the strings come from pci.ids. Diff the pci.ids you have on the 2.4 distro with the one on the 2.6 based and you will see where the string is coming from.
