Suse 10 Enterprise ? .. my version : kernel 2.6.16.21-0.8 (default)

1) Intel 82566DM => driver e1000 'find /lib/modules -name *e1000*'
==> /lib/modules/2.6.16.21-0.8-default/kernel/drivers/net/e1000
/lib/modules/2.6.16.21-0.8-default/kernel/drivers/net/e1000/e1000.ko

2) D-Link DGE-530T => driver sk98lin 'find /lib/modules -name *sk98*'
==> /lib/modules/2.6.16.21-0.8-default/kernel/drivers/net/sk98lin
/lib/modules/2.6.16.21-0.8-default/kernel/drivers/net/sk98lin/sk98lin.ko

And if you want to compile anything, I am sure that the source code in
your kernel-source 2.6.16.xx will work with your compiler (gcc)
..better than the D-Link code.

'find /usr/src/linux-2.6.16.21-0.8/ -name *sk98*'
/usr/src/linux-2.6.16.21-0.8/drivers/net/sk98lin
/usr/src/linux-2.6.16.21-0.8/Documentation/networking/sk98lin.txt
