RE: ethernet card
You have to be careful in buying hardware for
your system. Not everything is supported.
Investigate before you buy. You can simple
check your kernel configuration to see
what's supported with the standard issue
kernel. I investigated my ATI graphics
card before I bid on it on Ebay at Xfree86's
and KDE's web site.
Believe me I know, I have bought stuff I could not
use.

Honestly, I don't know. But have you tried ne ne2k-pci
module; a generic module for pci ne200 compatible cards.
