Description of problem:
The ADMTek AN983B is an onboard NIC on the MSI-6378 motherboard. RedHat does 
not detect this due to a cause of difference of PCI-ID. The AN983B nic 
identifies as vendor 0x1317, device 0x9511, which makes it undetectable.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start the computer up.
2.Run ifcfg eth0 to receive device not detected message
3.#cat /proc/pci to receive information, showing that the NIC is detected 
onboard, just not accepted as an NIC for the machine
