Most Linksys cards are NE2000. You can use the ne driver. A few models
use the tulip driver. A couple might use ne2K-pci. Their PCMCIA cards
and the goofy things that network through the parallel port use others.
The Ethernet HOWTO is a great place to start looking even if it is
starting to get a little out-of-date.

There's a Linksys section in chapter 4. The LDP is your friend. You will
need to know the precise model name of the card and if it is ISA, EISA,
MCA, or PCI.

I typed "Linux" in the bottom, shorter search box and hit the search
button. Found lots of stuff, including a FAQ.
Sometimes, especially for older cards, you will need to download a little
DOS app, boot with some floppy that will run DOS stuff, and run their
utility to change settings on the card. Settings like UTP or coax, full
or half duplex, that kind of thing.
Good luck,
