Having just installed Potato 2.2R5 on my workstation, I can say that the
2.2.19 kernels SHOULD support the 905C NICs with the 3c59x.o module. ALL
versions of 2.4.x after around -test7 have been changed so that the 3c59x
will work with it.

Personally, I think that the driver will work fine and the error is
somewhere else. Prior to the fixes to the 3c59x.o driver, it would load
with a 905C, was able to receive packets just fine, and was totally and
completely unable to respond.

Sounds to me like the module isn't the right one for the kernel you've got
running, actually.

  Why do we use names like "Vortex"?

  These are the 3Com internal names for the implementations. The names
  make it clear which product we are talking about, and the product
  numbers are often mistyped -- even I've made the mistake of
  referring to the 3c509 when I meant 3c905. (3Com only purchased
  rights to the numbers '3' '5' and '9', Intel owns '4', '8', '6', and
  '2'. '0' and '1' are still in the public domain ;-)

A quick look at the modules for dachstein, oxygen and lrp 2.9.8 don't
have any 3c90x module available.  I remember finding one somewhere, but
found that the 3c59x works.  Why does 3com have such a confusing
numbering system for their products anyways?  905; 509; 59x?.  

Cheers and have a good one.

That is one option.  Newer (than what I don't know exactly) versions of
3c59x are supposed to support the 3C905C NIC, but I haven't used any of
them personally.  3c59x is Becker's, and 3c905c is 3Com's.

problems with it and 905c's previously...

Hi,

Maybe I'm missing something here but don't you want to load the 3c90x
module?

I'm not sure whether the 905c's are supported by this driver - I do know 
that 905c's are quite different from 905b's - and did require different 
drivers when I was using certain dists.  Have you uncommented the pci-scan 
module?

[Leaf-user] Problem with 3c59x.o on Dachstein disk

2002-03-05 Thread Boyd Kelly

Hi,
 
I have a 3c905C card.  When I try to insmod 3c59x, i get error:
 
Unresolved symbol acpi_wake, acpi_set_pwr_state, pci_drv_unregister, pci_drv_register.
 
Tried to download a copy dated dec 1 from 
devel/cstein/files/kernels/Dachstein-small/modules/net with same result.
 
Any other possibilities?
 
Thanks
