As far as I know the 21143 is fairly new, and is included on the
DE500-BA. II just got some, and the stock 2.2.6 kernel seems to work
fine with it. 970921 is a long time ago; did you try the driver
that's in -stable now? There have been a number of commits since
then, and one of them pulled in the -current driver.
Here's dmesg output from a PII with a BA booting the 2.2.6
release kernel.

There are two cards; one is plugged into a 10Mb/s hub, and the other
indeed has no cable in it.
