Yes, I received the drivers from a friend (Thanks, Kyle!) and uploaded
them to ftp.cica.indiana.edu in pub/pc/win3/uploads as rtwin31.zip.  I
later checked with my local RealTek vendor who said that it was okay
to do that (okay, so I got things out of order... :-) ) (I'm the "TF"
in the attributions above, BTW).

Hope this helps out.
