Yes.  It uses the eepro100 driver
   http://www.scyld.com/network/eepro100.html
      ftp://www.scyld.com/pub/network/eepro100.c

You can load the updated driver with

mkdir /tmp/netdrivers/
cd /tmp/netdrivers/
ncftp ftp://ftp.scyld.com/pub/network/netdrivers.tgz
tar xfvz netdrivers.tgz
make
make install

If the card is not detected your card might have an unusual PCI ID set.
If so, send the output of 'lspci'.

Be certain to run 'eepro100-diag -ee' first to clear the sleep mode:
