Using whatever operating system currently have on the machine, you could also run the Device Detection Tool:

It's a Java application that will check all your devices.

I can't find anything on the net, so has anyone experience with this adapter?

No experience, but I bet it will work.
Why?  Well, I searched around a bit, and found that the device ID of the
82574L is 0x10D3[2], which appears in /etc/driver_aliases thus:

t...@igyo[113] grep pci8086,10d3 /etc/driver_aliases e1000g "pci8086,10d3"

Having found the device ID, further searching on the HCL found me this
system, which has that device id as well:

Give it a go, what's the worst that could happen?
