I bought myself a Realtek which is just a 10Base-T/10Base-2 NE2000
clone (10/20 Mbit [aka 100/200 mbit]). Even though it claims to be PnP
none of my computers running Linux had any problems detecting it. It
worked beautifully right away, all I had to do was recompile the
kernel. I paid $20-$25 for it.
If you can find one of these then go for it.
