when i build a linux kernel (2.6) do i need any special options enabled for a usb 2.0 pci card , other than the standard usb stuff?

Yes, you need to enable EHCI in your kernel.
The Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) is standard for USB 2.0
"high speed" (480 Mbit/sec, 60 Mbyte/sec) host controller hardware.

should the said USB PCI card work in a old P3 500mhz PC ok, or are any special bios features required?

That depends upon the motherboard. You can look in your BIOS, or you
can search
<Linux> Google, or
LQ Search.
Post the exact model and manufacturer of the board and I'll help search.
There's also a chance that your motherboard won't support this controller.
