Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 kernel-image-2.6.15-17-386-di (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
The Dapper Drake flight-4 install cdrom does not detect the onboard LAN
of the MSI 915GM Speedster-FA4 mainboard. According to the manual the
mainboard has 2 Marvell 88E8053 gigabit ethernet controllers installed.

Since Breezy Badger _does_ detect the onboard LAN (as "Marvell
Technology Group Ltd. 4362") I would consider this a bug in Dapper.

I believe a driver for this particular revision of the Marvell
controllers was introduced in mainline 2.6.16
