The alx driver was merged into the mainline kernel a few days ago (commit
ab69bde6 "alx: add a simple AR816x/AR817x device driver"). Its list of
supported PCI IDs include PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATTANSIC:ALX_DEV_ID_AR8162 (=
1969:1090). Kernel version 3.10 which is about to be released in a few days,
should have support for this hardware out of the box.
