I have a cardbus adapter called "Zonet ZEN 1201 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet 32-bit", \
which is actually a Realtek RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+. It was very inexpensive, but it \
works extremely well for me in my Dell Inspiron 1150 using Lenny. It is identified \
thusly by lshw:

And lspci -v shows this about it:

I have had no problems whatsoever with this card on several different Linux \
distributions.
I am more than willing to post any of my configs that could be of help.
Regards.
