A quick search on Realtek's site(http://www.realtek.com.tw) seems to indicate that it is an NE2000 combatible card so just recompile the kernel for NE2000 support. They also provide Linux drivers but I would not use those unless as a last resort, chances are the driver is already in the kernel. The site also has the config utility to run under a clean(no windows) DOS season to configure the card. Use that to disable PNP, ftp://ftp.realtek.com.tw/LANCARD/drivers/8029/RSET8029.EXE.
