depca.  Don't think that's included in Debian kernels.

config DEPCA
        tristate "DEPCA, DE10x, DE200, DE201, DE202, DE422 support"
        depends on ISA || EISA || MCA
        select CRC32
        ---help---
          If you have a network (Ethernet) card of this type, say Y and read
          the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
          <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto> as well as
          <file:drivers/net/depca.c>.

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
          will be called depca.
