Was also looking at the Linksys EtherFast LNE100TX, which was supported at one point, but they use different chipsets on different age cards; on their web site they say "here is how to tell which chipset your card has" and that it depends on how old they are, but they don't say if the DEC chipset ones are the old ones or new ones. Unfortunately, I'm guessing old. Maybe I'll just have to get a Kingston KNE100TX, assuming they haven't messed that one up too.
