I have used a Prolinea 5133 with a 21140 based NIC and the de driver,
although only using 3.x kernels. The only headache was getting the media

This looks like your NIC. You might want to look through the de driver
source and see whether these vendor/device ids are in its recognition
list, as it looks to me like the driver isn't finding a match.
