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:

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.
