It should be supported by the eepro100 driver, but the eepro100 driver from 2.4.18 only supports cards up to PCI ID 8086:1038, while the 82562ET seems to be 8086:103a (you can verify this using lspci -n) If you feel brave, you coulkd try using a hex editor on the eepro100.o file, and change "86 80 00 00 38 10 00 00" to "86 80 00 00 3a 10 00 00" (it should be in /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/drivers/net/) If you like, I can send you an edited module to replace the one on your system. If you do compile a new kernel, either edit the eepro100.c source to add support for yoour card, or use a kernel of version 2.4.19 or higher.
