   Drivers for VMware 4.5 virtual ethernet

   Hi everyone,   
      
   I wonder if there are any BeOS drivers for AMD PCNET ethernet adapters.   
   The reason is that the virtual ethernet device provided by VMware   
   Workstation 4.5 is an emulation of such a card.   
      
   Despite discouraging reports that Google has presented me with, I have   
   found out that BeOS 5.0.3 PE installs and runs very smoothly within   
   VMware, even though it is officially unsupported and will remain so.   
      
   The only thing that doesn't work for me is networking.   
      
   So, has anyone ever heard of that chipset and if any drivers exist   
   anywhere?   
      
   Thanks a lot in advance!   
      
   Johannes
