A very casual Google suggests that this card uses the the atl1e kernel  
driver / module.

EG:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy-lum.git;a=commit;h=949e7063204f568027fa7783c8562ceb32b95a25

says: Add support Atheros ... AR8132 ethernet NICs

CONFIG_ATL1E is the wossisname.

Have you tried this driver?
