By poking around <http://www.kernel.org/> I discovered a very simple change to sky2.c in Linux kernel 2.6.19 (-rc2) that enables support for the 88E8056 as it is identified in current Asus P5B mainboards (and, probably, others, as well):

Yes, clearly.
this can be passed to the driver at runtime.
How is that done? I haven't been able to find a comprehensive specification or list of kernel command-line options. Or do you mean it can be done even after the system is running?
IIRC, there is even a YaST dialog for this.
Really? Do you know how or where this is done? I thought I'd been through the whole thing (at least everything relevant to networking), but I must have overlooked that one.
