I dont know this card but in /usr/doc/*-HOWTOs/Ethernet-HOWTO i found the
following.
5.27.2. NE2000-PCI (RealTek/Winbond/Compex)
Status: Supported, Driver Name: ne, ne2k-pci (+8390)
Yes, believe it or not, people are making PCI cards based on the more
than ten year old interface design of the ne2000. At the moment nearly
all of these cards are based on the RealTek 8029 chip, or the Winbond
89c940 chip. The Compex, KTI, VIA and Netvin cards apparently also
use these chips, but have a different PCI ID.
You can read the rest yourself.
It all comes down to;
If you are using a distibution installed kernel then you have support for
that card already in module form.
modprobe ne2k-pci
might even work as is, try it.
