Working network cards on PCLinuxOS 2007 i586 (kernel: 2.6.18.8.tex5) by dukenukeme (3):

sc92031 module from source

Working network cards on PCLinuxOS 2008 i586 (kernel: 2.6.22.15.tex3) by dukenukeme (5):

must manually load /sbin/modprobe sc92031

Working network cards on Pardus Live 2007.3 i386 (kernel: 2.6.18.8-86) by dukenukeme (3):

You must compile driver from backport source
(included sc92031 in pardus 2007.x is not working)

Working network cards on Slackware 13.0.0.0.0 Slackware 13.0.0.0.0 (kernel: 2.6.29.6-smp) by Xeleema (-3):

The sc92031 module only supports one card. Two or more cards in the same system cause a “Link Up/Link Down” error to be reported a few times each second to syslog.
