Thanks Marc. The drivers from the HP Enterprise site worked, although for Windows 95 I have been unable to get TCP/IP working. DHCP is not working and ping moans about a wrong protocol. It looks like I am missing VUDP.386 and I could not find it on the Windows 95 CD. I am pretty sure I have another CD with OSR2 somewhere, but I can't find it at the moment. Will have another look at some point, but I think the driver itself is just fine now.
For what it's worth, I use Win98SE as the minimum Win9x version on my systems. Many fewer bugs than 95 and the minidriver platform has a degree of compatibility with NT/2K/XP. I run a Linksys WMP-54GS wireless PCI LAN adapter on 98SE, for example with no issues.
And I have a similar 98SE/XP/Debian K6 box using the 3C905-TX with no problems whatsoever.
My phone screening software runs on 98SE on an old 400MHz Neoware VIA thin client 24/7 and has been doing so for months.
Supposedly, WinME with appropriate patches is even more solid, but I've never tried it.
FWIW, Chuck
