ethernet problems
Hi,
I've just put a 3c900 card in my linux machine and it's giving me
problems. Kernel version is 2.0.30. From what I could ascertain, the new
version of 3c59x.c is a plug-in replacement for the old one without 3c900
support. Accordingly, I replaced the old version with the new, ran
make-kpkg and etc. The card is recognized during kernel bootup but,
subsequently, I can't reach the network (I get a "no route to host
error".) The following appears in the messages file very frequently:

I set the card to the 10base-2 port with the software included with the
card and the kernel agrees with that. Has anyone had any experience with
this card?
Thanks,
J. Goldman
