http://www.kernel.org has drivers for (almost?) all common NIC cards, that is, Linux itself knows how to handle them and you don't need to download a 'driver' from a different web-page. > I guess I could go > buy another one, but would prefer not to. > > Would a UNIX driver work for it?

If you've got debian kernel & modules installed, you can figure out the available modules using: find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ -name '*3c* and insmod the appropriate one.
