Windows works fine but Gentoo didn't.  Recompiled the kernel with the
8130too driver, no good.  Bought a Netgear FA311, compiled the National
Semiconductor DP8381X driver, no good.  Compiled a kernel with all
10/100 Ethernet controllers that gentoo has for it resident, not
modular, in the kernel, nether card is any good on Gentoo.  Just booted
windows on the tx530, it's fine.

Have you tried booting any of the gentoo live cd's using those cards you
are having problems with? If they get detected with the LiveCDs, then it
would merely be a matter of running lspci or lsmod to find out how the
LiveCDs autodetecting features are seeing it to help you know how to
compile support for them into the kernel.
