I'm not running Ubuntu, but if you really need this tested, let me know and I
can get a test install done (please send me a link to download ISO's) on a
spare machine.

If you have people in the UK, the problem I had was with connecting this
NIC to the cable modem from the Virgin ISP. I've seen the same 'box' in
the USA, but you would need to check out the exact details to see if they
match.
