Is it the ISA one (I think there is a PCI verison but i'm not sure), anway mine
works fine but I had to disable PNP on the card and set the card to use the
media I wanted i.e. BNC,UTP(RJ45) or AUI	
I also had to edit the /etc/modules file and near the top there is a line that
says insert you network card driver here, i had to put 3C509 there and then I
rebooted and it seemed to work fine.

Hope this helps
