MPX EN5038, dual nic cards



I found a source for 10/100 baset enet cards that use
either realtek 8139 or mpx en5038 chipsets.  I know
that the 8139 IS supported under linux, but I am not
sure about the mpx en5038 (a grep on the net sources
in 2.0.38 turned up nothing).  Does anyone know if
this chipset is supported?  Maybe I can only accept
the cards with the realtek.

Also I am planning to build a firewall machine for my
lan as I have ordered dsl service.  If I configure a
machine with dual nic's do they have to be the same
type, or can I just load two drivers into the kernel
for say one ne2000 card, and one 3-com card?
