Cesar,
you could try and see what chip the card has and then find the right
driver for it. Try this site:
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO.html
from there you could find more, I hope.
When you've found the right driver and installed it
edit /etc/modules.conf and add 'alias "your driver" ', save and type
'ifconfig eth0'. It should then be up and running.
