As far as I can see the only thing in dmesg regarding this card is:

pci1: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib3
pci1: <network> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)

What I did was this: I used my windows xp drivers for the card that I recieved 
with the computer. I used the .sys and the inf file. The driver loads good but 
no interface is shown. Is the someway to force the driver to attach to pci2 
somehow?
Or is there some way to use a linux driver? Linux says its a realtek 8187SE.
