Hi Andrew,
I have the exact same card. I had to grab some drivers from 3com's
webpage. I don't know where I found it exactly but the filename your
after is called 3c90x-1.0.0i.tar.gz. If you have problems finding it let
me know and I'll try hunting it down again.
Alternatively one of the 3c50x drivers sorta supports the 3c905c cards,
but not very well.
After I got the drivers I just followed the instructions on how to patch
the kernel and then configure it and everything after that worked sweetly.
Let me know if you run into any probs with it and I'll see what I can do
to help (I have to do this on another machine soon so it's a good excuse
for me to do it :-)).
Cheers,
Kieran
