See the list of currently (as of version 3.8-rc1) supported PCI IDs of Atheros
GbE Ethernet devices in drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atl1e/atl1e_main.c,
drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atl1c/atl1c_hw.h and
drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atlx/atl1.c. You'll need to access a running
machine to extract the PCI ID information, though, since Gigabyte's manual is
not very helpful.
