problem with rl network card

[Anatoli Marinov]

I'v made only one change that you told me. I have changed default RTL vendor
ID in the header file.
So for good or for bad I have this card :) and I want to fix it.
I should look at the sources and will try to find something ....
I someone wants to try his patches I am ready to support him...
