Replying to myself here. A bit of more digging I found a reference to 
AN983, which seems to imply that it's a ADMTek and I should use the
tulip driver for this card. My friend even managed to get it to work
on his laptop. Sofar all is well and good.

But now it seems that the reason that the card isn't identified is 
more of a general PCI && kernel issue, I think about the note of 
a unidentified header type:

And...

Anyone know what could cause such a behaviour?

I tried some random kernel arguments, like noapic etc, but random 
testing is (or at least feels) rather futile.
