It's a 3COM 3c905C, and it worked perfectly with the last SuSE-Version of k_deflt.2.2.14 The entry in /etc/modules.conf hasn't changed.
I had the same problem. This is a fault in the 1.0.0i version of 3Coms 3c90x driver. SuSEs 2.2.14 kernel had version 1.0.0 (sans i).
In the meantime I switched to using Don Beckers old 3c59x. The menuconfig option is "3c590 (Boomerang)" or so...
P.S. the 1.0.0i is identical with the latest version from 3Coms site, so it's their fault (so to speak) or SuSEs for not checking...
I would like to see better Support from SuSE, cause in the past i had a lot of problems with packages from SuSE with incompatility in drivers and/or software (raid, 3com, smp, vortex-icp, ..., etc). Most of those Problems i didnt see in Debian GNU/Linux - just for example. Maybe SuSE starts sometime to fix this, and let us download k_*.rpm's from the FTP-Server in an faster period than the box-updates ;) Greetings, Joerg Henner. -- LinuxHaus Stuttgart | Tel.: +49 (7 11) 2 85 19 05 Jörg Henner & Adrian Reyer, Datentechnik GbR | D2: +49 (1 72) 7 35 31 09 | Fax: +49 (7 11) 5 78 06 92 Linux, Netzwerke, Webhosting & Support | http://lihas.de
