Suse 9.0 - which network card please? Any!?

I'm migrating to Ubuntu on a Toshiba laptop and I would like to connect my wireless laptop to my old desktop using a network card. As the desktop is out of date (SuSE 9.0) I'd like to get a compatible/supported network card.

I don't want to change the SuSE 9.0 installation as there are many awkward programs I've installed over the years and I'd just like to be able to telnet across occasionally to run these.

My question is this:

Can someone please recommend a PCI network card that will work on SuSE 9.0?

Thanks for viewing!

I used cards with the RTL8139 chip with Suse 9. Does 10/100.
Can't name a card manufacturers model, but they are easy to recognize and very common.

Many thanks, I'm sure that's enough info. It should work with that kernel.
