Via Rhine and RTL8139 are actually quite different chips, but I suppose it seems normal for Dlink to make very similar sounding NICs that have different hardware. Probably the best thing to do is to find out the PCI IDs of the NIC, either look at the BIOS display of the PCI devices at power-on self-test, or run lspci after Linux has booted. From disk of course. Then match the IDs against the list in the file NIC. Also the name of the Linux driver that works is a good clue.
