i can't speak for the current state of FC6, but the latest version of
the kernel certainly has support for that chip set. from the Kconfig
file in the drivers/net directory:
...
config SC92031
tristate "Silan SC92031 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter driver (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on NET_PCI && PCI && EXPERIMENTAL
select CRC32
---help---
This is a driver for the Fast Ethernet PCI network cards based on
the Silan SC92031 chip (sometimes also called Rsltek 8139D). If you
have one of these, say Y here.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called sc92031. This is recommended.
...
so, if all else fails, you can always upgrade your kernel.
