Comment 39 for bug 138611

I've installed the 2.6.27-2-generic kernel from the Intrepid debs and I'm still having sky2 issues. If I right-click on the nm-applet, uncheck "Enable Networking" and re-check it, my link comes back up.

I'm running the Abit P5K Pro motherboard with the following device:
02:00.0 0200: 11ab:4364 (rev 12)
 Subsystem: 1043:81f8
 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B-
 Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
 Latency: 0, Cache Line Size: 32 bytes
 Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 219
 Region 0: Memory at feafc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
 Region 2: I/O ports at d800 [size=256]
 Expansion ROM at feac0000 [disabled] [size=128K]
 Capabilities: <access denied>

I'm going to update my motherboard BIOS to see if that helps the situation. I'll also contact ASUS to see if there is a NIC firmware update I can apply as mentioned in another comment (no update is mentioned on their website for this motherboard).
