Im looking to install (not bought yet a couple of ADMtek AN983 10/100
PCI netcards into a suse 9.2 box.

It seems to compatible with Linux and the tulip driver (whatever that
is) the suse hardware db has no mention of such a card, mfr etc

So can anybody here tell me what it might be called, and whether suse
will pick it up I'd rather ask the question now rather than find out
it does not work.

Card features

10/100M Fast Auto-Negotiation Ethernet PCI Card, 32bit PCI bus unit
Complies with IEEE802.3, 100BASE-TX, IEEE802.3u 10BASE-T, stands
Supports Half/Full-duplex flow control
Support ACPI, supply PCI power management fuction to operation system
with OSPM function
PCI 2.2 plug & play

The hardware db is telling me nothing exists. Anybody have any
experiences with this card on the list ?

Thanks
