hi, can anyone tell if the following ethernet cards are compatible with linux.
realteck 8139B DIGI-5700TX 10/100 Fast Ethernet Adapter DLINK DFE-670TXD DLink DFE 538TX Lan
rtl8139 and dfe 538tx are the same, and use the same realtek chipset. Both work under GNU/linux.
Go to http://www.google.com/linux and search for the other cards.
If u already have the card in your system, lspci -vv will list the hardware as the machine sees it. This is different from the fancy model numbers printed on the box. Look for the line with Ethernet controller: here is mine
01:09.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
