This is, I believe, an ISA NE2000 clone with a Davicom transceiver.
Davicom mostly makes transceiver chips. There are very few Davicom
Ethernet adapters out in the field.
BTW, the Davicom PCI adapter chip is actually a Tulip work-alike. You
should take a look at the driver you put into the kernel, especially at the
needless data copies on transmit and recieve.
