As far as I know, there are indeed no OS/2 drivers for this card.

These two cards have in fact Realtek chipsets. Just look for that driver and it 
will work fine. You'll need the RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC+ driver.

The 530 card may have a VIA chipset if it's an A or B type. In that case, use

Tip: try to restrict yourself to Realtek-based network cards. They have 
excellent drivers for OS/2 and Linux and it works flawlessly. Intel works good 
too, but these cards usually are expensive.
