The easiest thing I've ever installed in any Linux environment. Works with the via-rhine driver that comes with every linux kernel I've ever used (to date) and it doesnt really get any easier than that...
Cheap card, and I've had used it for 6 years - flawlessly I might add.

Good quality, and good price.

I used the 8139too module. It didn't auto detect so I had to fishing around trying to find which module to use. Not a bad card, wake on lan works but you have to enable that manually every time you boot (as root: ethtool -s eth0 wol umbg) unless you add it to the setup.

I have 3 card like this one and none has the same chipset.
It can be one on the following chipset :
-Via-rhine
-Realtek-8139
-NE2000 compatible
I once had problem with this card, I was unable to get it to work if PnP was on in BIOS. Turning PnP off fixed it.

Worked fine with everything I've tried. Better card than the price suggests.

This card was detected automaticly and have had no problems.
With a DFI motherboard I had some kind of hardware memory area collision problem with this card but it was not related to Linux but the motherboard.
