It's a separate card plugged into one of the open slots on the
motherboard.  It's PCI.  Did a dmesg on and found the following for
the PCI hardware.
PCI: PCI bios revision 2.10 entry at 0xfb360
PCI: Using configuration type 1
PCI: Probing PCI hardware  
Linux Net 4.0 for Linux 2.2
Based on Swansea University Computer Society Net 3.039
Net 4: Unix domain sockets 1.0 for Linux Net 4.0
Net 4:  Linux TCP/IP 1.0 for Net4.0
IP protocols: ICMP, UMP, TCP

Yes it has been working on win98, and knoppix. 
I have the installation disk for the card which I installed some time
ago. I believe the card is a D-Link DFE-530TX+ PCI adapter.

I really don't know precisely.  I am running Linux on a separate
harddrive which is in a portable rack.  Win98 is on another harddrive
and as you know knoppix is a livecd.
