Eric, IIRC, the SysKonnect official GPL driver attempts to support two different chipsets / possibly has other coding issues as well. I think this is the reason SysKonnect's driver is still out of tree. I think some netdev folks might be working on newer drivers, but I haven't been keeping track honestly.
