Should be the "e100" driver.  According to the source code:

 *      I.   General
 *
 *      The driver supports Intel(R) 10/100 Mbps PCI Fast Ethernet
 *      controller family, which includes the 82557, 82558, 82559,
 *      82550, 82551, and 82562 devices.  82558 and greater controllers
 *      integrate the Intel 82555 PHY.  The controllers are used in
 *      server and client network interface cards, as well as in
 *      LAN-On-Motherboard (LOM), CardBus, MiniPCI, and ICHx
 *      configurations.  8255x supports a 32-bit linear addressing
 *      mode and operates at 33Mhz PCI clock rate.

So verify that the "e100" driver is loaded via "/sbin/lsmod".
