You should use the boomerang or vortex driver, i think it says 3c59x adapter but it works with a 3c905c as well. Otherwise visit the 3com website, for some cards there are linux modules available, could be wrong about this but worth a try   greets,   joris -Original Message-From

I think it works very well under Linux! Rebuilding the kernel and the modules was enough for me to get the nic up and running (I compiled the Kernel module loader into the kernel, so I did not have to insmod the card). I don't know about the 3c905c. I have never tried a 905c card, but I thinks it works the same. Good luck, Robert-Jan

Are you sure about that? The question was about a 905 series card, not a 590 series card. The 905 series are PCI cards, and I believe the 590 series (or was it 509 series?) are ISA. Both 3Com and RedHat say that the 3c905b card does NOT work with Linux. I don't know about the 3c905
