It is a 3Com 3C590 PCI card. With insmod I recieved the following message:
/lib/modules/2.0.32/net/3c509.o: init_module: Device or resource busy.
This card works fine in Win 95. I re-installed RedHat and it worked untill
I rebooted the system. Something make me think it is a HW problem that Win
95 does not mind.
