Dlink do support linux. Try searcing their site for a driver. If they
don't appear to have one it's probably supported by one of the kernal
drivers shipped with linux. Try asking them their is a tech support
address on their site.

Goto www.dlink.com/tech

:) They should sort you out

On an optomistic note. I run our companys entire network of dlinks. with
a linux box running as the server.
