Here, no problems with a 3C509B. I disabled pnp and set the irq to 5
(for arbitrary reasons.)
IIRC it worked fine already with the default kernel, but
I did a "dpkg --search imake" on my system, and it reports that it is part of
the "xlib6-dev" package:
(cc37450-a)hnine:/home/hnine[508]$ dpkg --search /usr/X11R6/bin/imake
xlib6-dev: /usr/X11R6/bin/imake
(cc37450-a)hnine:/home/hnine[509]$
Cheers.
