The card is a 3c905. Install 'discover' and 'hotplug' and that should take care of most of your problems. Those are hardware discovery programs.

If you have the 2.6 kernel installed then install 'udev' too since it makes for a nice /dev management. > This must be a common question, but after a fair > amount of googling I haven't been able to spot an answer.
