Hello Keith

I'm not sure I can be of any help. I have an older Asus board (2years)
that uses an onboard sk card. Here is the output from my machine

skc0 at pci2:5:0:  class=0x020000 card=0x80eb1043 chip=0x170010b7 rev=0x12
hdr=0x00 vendor   = '3COM Corp, Networking Division'
    device   = '3C940 and 3C2000 Gigabit Ethernet PCI CODEC?'
    class    = network
    subclass = ethernet

Mine is 3COM while yours is Linksys.

[robert at p4] ~> grep sk /var/run/dmesg.boot
skc0: <3Com 3C940 Gigabit Ethernet> port 0xd800-0xd8ff mem
0xfeafc000-0xfeafffff irq 22 at device 5.0 on pci2 skc0: 3Com Gigabit
LOM (3C940) rev. (0x1) sk0: <Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. Yukon> on skc0
sk0: Ethernet address: 00:0c:6e:91:de:a6
miibus0: <MII bus> on sk0

The mii bus is shown here and unless you have removed it from your
kernel it would be automatic.

From rc.conf

defaultrouter="10.0.0.1"
hostname="p4.konav201.local"
ifconfig_sk0="inet 10.0.0.103  media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
netmask 255.255.255.0"

Notice that it is sk0 _not_ skc0. AFAIK this is not your problem but it
should be changed in your rc.conf file. Except for an occasional
"watchdog" it is working fine.

I google'd for your error "rid 0x10 is ioport" but didn't see any
solutions. There was some reference to ACPI so it might be something to
try. 

BTW I am running 6 Stable.

I hope this helps. Good luck
Robert
