Question about PCI IDs and Drivers



I have a new Network Card, and I found the VENDOR ID and the DEVICE ID.
I found it in "lspci -nv" and later looking for the given number in
/var/libs/pciutils/pci.ids, but now, how do I know which driver to
use? And if Debian has it compiled?

The card is (listed with pci.ids) :

1904 Hangzhou Silan Microelectronics Co., Ltd.
8139 RTL8139D [Realtek] PCI 10/100BaseTX ethernet adaptor

Now, the output of lspci -v :

0000:00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: Hangzhou Silan Microelectronics Co.,
Ltd. RTL8139D [Realtek] PCI 10/100BaseTX ethernet adaptor (rev 01)
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
Memory at cfff7f00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
I/O ports at d000 [size=256]
Expansion ROM at cffa0000 [disabled] [size=128K]
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [60] Vital Product Data


I think is the Driver 8139too, but when I modprobe it, my Network
Cards still doesnt work.

If I do "ifconfig eth1 10.0.0.221 255.255.255.0 up" it says No Such Device.

Thanks!!
