Re: Is the 3COM 3C509B PCI (PCI PCI PCI __not__ ISA) supported?

You certainly are confused :)
The 3c509 series of cards (aka EtherLink III) are, and always have been,
ISA units.
Look at the contents of /proc/pci again; you'll see that you have a 3c905b
ethernet card. It's a 10/100 Mbit PCI card, and a very nice one that
that, if expensive.
You need the 3c59x driver for this card to work.
I don't know why it says 3c509b, however.
