Hi Ian

I picked up a pair of No Name network cards and hub with manuals. As is the
norm now adays, the install instructions all start with 'In the Win 95/98'.
Looking at the cards, I have a chip with the number RTL8029AS on it, looking
through the Network support web site I find the ne2k-pci driver matches the
chip. If you can identify your chip set, it may be possible to find the correct
driver at http://cesdis1.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/
