rtl 8100c mini-pci in ipcop 2.4.36 kernel


I have a box with a tiny motherboard containing 6 network interfaces. 4 are recognised by the ipcop (currently 1.4.21 with 2.4.36 kernel) install. 2 nics are not recognised. On the motherboard are 2 chips labelled realtek 8100c. These are gigabit interfaces and I need to get them working.

lspci -v shows me: (I'm only including what I belive are networking devices)

I conclude that there are two valid pci devices (11c1:ed00) without drivers - these seem to be the 8100c gigabit nics.

Can anyone help me get these two devices working on this ipcop box ?

ifconfig -a shows me:

more information

I have learned that...

The 2 x gigabit ports are actually Agere Systems ET-131x chipset based

can anyone help compile a driver for this on a 4.2.36 kernel ?
