In the meantime I switched to using Don Beckers old 3c59x. The

Does this driver work with the above mentioned card? IIRC I had
to update driver 1.0.0c to 1.0.0d before it's not just recognized

I can't tell for shure. The version numbering for 3c59x is different from
3c90x anyway. Mine says:

3c59x.c:v0.99H 12Jun00 Donald Becker and others
http://www.scyld.com/network/vortex.html
eth0: 3Com 3c905B Cyclone 100baseTx at 0xb000, 00:50:04:10:9d:29, IRQ 12
8K byte-wide RAM 5:3 Rx:Tx split, autoselect/Autonegotiate interface.
MII transceiver found at address 24, status 786d.
MII transceiver found at address 0, status 786d.
Enabling bus-master transmits and whole-frame receives.

So I think I have a 905B card and I can't say whether there's problems
with 905C cards. Give it a try or look around Don Beckers pages...

905C works fine, too!

Best,
Frank
