actually - if you go to www.realtek.com.tw at:
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?series=16&;
Software=True
you will find the 8139 driver for beos r5....i don't see anything there
about the author or crediting Be ... which doesn't mean that they wrote
it themselves, but based on the array or OS's listed on that page it is
evident that they care to support most OS's.
