RE: Inter pro100



some of the newer RTL8139 cards  need a newer driver, and there are a few
other there (some come from a company called SMC) that are "mislabled" and
need an updated driver to work as well.

I have several RTL8139-based cards running great in linux.  the driver
seems to be better then the 3com one, as my rtl8139s can transfer data
200% faster then my 3C905b/3c905c (5.5MB/s as opposed to 11MB/s on the
rtl8139 on 100baseT switched)

see http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/rtl8139.html

for more info on the rtl8139 drivers
