Thanks Nick,
I configured it with the 3Com DOS prog. Removed Plug & Pray . Tests worked
OK on I/O 300 IRQ 5
I was then able to config using Yast2.
But I still cannot get DHCPD to assign IP addresses over this interface.
I had the same trouble with a previous ISA Ethernet Card which was my reason
for trying the 3Com device.
DHCPD works fine when I am using a PCI ethernet device as eth0 but not it
seems when I use an ISA one as eth0.
All my config files (named, dhcpd, SuSEfirewall2) remain unchanged.
Any ideas where else I can look.
I am stumped !
Philip

I don't know about current times, but in the past, to make Linux see 3c509 cards, you needed to run the DOS setup program (I forget what it was
called;
you can probably still download it from 3COM's web site; failing that, I could probably scrape together a copy & email it to you) and disable the "plug & pray" feature of it. After doing that, they always worked like a charm. I most likely have at least one of them running on SuSE 8.2 at home in a least one machine.
