It looks like Linux has already installed the driver for you. All
you need to do is configure the card. At least the device number
matched the one for the Linksys card. It is listed as an Abocom
System but it not unusual for the PCI ID to be from a different
manufacturer. And ifconfig know you have an Ether net interface that
is not up and/or not configured.
