"modprobe 3c59x" doesn't do anything - or not that i can see. the machine hangs (not crashes, just hangs) for about five minutes or so. i rebooted at that point. "depmod -a -v" gives a big list of modules, inculding 3c59x. does this mean that it is loading? also, i saw this message at boot-up which may be of interest: eth0: Unknown interface: Operation not supported by device so there we are... thanks, -b
