Hi
If you use RH6.1 and tell it during install to load an 'Add Device' then
"Network' and select the Vortex driver it will work - I had problems
with the TXM incarnation of this card. Alternatively download the most
up to date 3c59x.c file from Donald Becker's site and dump it in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/... and recompile the kernel.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Stephen.
