I have the same card, and never had to download any drivers. The source is already in the kernel source tree, so you can just configure a kernel with the via-rhine drivers, and build it. If you don't feel like building a kernel, mandrake's stock bootkernels come with the module as well; just load the via-rhine module with modprobe. If it doesn't give you any problems, set it up with netconf, under "Adaptor 1" (or 2, 3 or 4, if it isn't the first NIC in your box). Just choose "eth0" (or 1, 2, ...) as Net Device, and "via-rhine" as Kernel Module. This should do the trick. Good luck.
