I went and bought a cheapo Dynamode NC-100TX-DL internal PCI NIC (after unsuccessfully trying a few NICs we had lying around in the office).
DCPI Manager reports that I have:

So I've been looking for drivers for Realtek RTL8139D cards. I've tried PCGenRTL8139Ethernet.kext and John Stormdrake's AppleRTL8139Ethernet for Leopard. I've also tried adding the vendor and device ID to the .plist.
This is on a completely fresh install of Kalyway. Nothing appears to be happening at all.
In System Profiler, I can't see any of these extensions being loaded.
If I try adding the device and vendor ID in the usual way to the out-the-box 'AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext', I get the following:

Should any of these drivers work? Am I missing something obvious. Is there another way?!
Can anyone help me? Thanks!
