Unfortunately different revisions of the 3C905C can be quite different. The relatively recent 3C905CX-TX-M would not work with kernels up to and including 2.2.18 without patching the 3c59x module, whereas the 3C905CX-TXM was OK. Despite the similarity on paper, they look quite different side-by-side. I believe that kernel 2.2.19, and recent 2.4 kernels have an updated 3c59x module, but have not checked myself that it works. How you get a newer kernel onto your machine without a working network card is left as an exercise... -- Gilbert Laycock email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maths and Computer Science, http://www.mcs.le.ac.uk/~glaycock University of Leicester phone: (+44) 116 252 3902
