Searching with google did not show me any useful results. I did read 
something that the 8139 and 8169 act differently and need different 
drivers. I don't know which driver would cover the card.

I did find a questionable link with pop-ups for a Linux zip for the 2.4 
kernel.

Another link suggested using the below:
