I have nForce 3 250 chipset for now and I really have no idea what nForce Network Adapter it is. Probably a kind of Marvell (and I use forcedeth for it). Also as a secondary there is Marvell Yukon which works fine with sk98lin. While using sk98lin it sees only Yukon. The strange thing is that most Marvell's used with nForce can be run with sk98lin but there is a group of a few adapters which can work only with forcedeth or original nForce drivers. As i see there could be an explanation for it. Promary adapter is communicating with OS via chipset while secondary isn't (that is on nForce scheme's). So the explanation is that primary adapter is driven by chipset intarface which is working with forcedeth (and that interface is the same or almost the same for every nForce2/3/4 chipset). It everything is on net (pictures describing my nForce3 architecture are in manual for my motherboard). The conclusion is that when you are trying to get help for Marvell you must write if it is secondary or primary adapter on you mobo. Of course there is an issue that some secondary Marvell adapters works with forcedeth whil should with sk98lin. And tah thing is strange -- Registered Linux User 369908
