Bug#55849: does not support new 3c905 ("Tornado" and "Cyclone") nics

["Stephen R. Gore" <sgore@ev1.net>]

Package: boot-floppies
Version: N/A;
Severity: important

The newer 3c905c cards from 3Com are becoming very common, and 
require a patch in order for the 3c59x module to support them.


I would not normally file a bug on this, except that there is
an available fix and it is a simple one.

The patch is at: http://www.kernelnotes.org/v22patch/patch-2.2.13/linux_drivers_net_3c59x.c.html 

Please feel free to downgrade this bug if you feel the severity
is unjustified.
