Verify the printing on the main chip.

If it doesn't say RTL8139D then 8139too.o is not the correct module. Try 
using the 8139cp.o module instead if the trailing character is different.

Also, there appear to be other cards that use the designation 8139 but 
in fact use a different chipset. One of those (Intex RTL 8139D) is 
referenced as using Silan sc92031 which will not be plug-and-play in 
Bering as the sc92031.o module is not listed.
