Using a Compex ReadyLink 100-TX/PCI while installing 2.0

[Daniel Baldoni <dbaldoni@freport.wa.gov.au>]

G'day folks,

I am trying to install hamm on a new Pentium-II/233 with a Compex NIC and am
having no luck getting the card to work.  As mentioned in the Subject: line,
it's a Compex card but it doesn't appear to be known by the kernel (2.0.34).

Here's a snippet from /proc/pci:

	Bus  0,  device  11, function  0,
	  Ethernet controller. Compex Unknown device (rev 0).
	    Vendor id=11f6. Device id=9881.
	    Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ=10. Master capable. Latency=80
	    I/O at 0x6400.
	    Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe8000000

I've tried booting using:

	linux ether=10,0x6400,eth0

as I thought this might be an ne2k-pci card (wishful thinking?) but modconf
still wasn't happy with any of the drivers I tried (and I think I've tried 
them all).

Any help would be much appreciated.

Ciao.

PS:  I hate to say this, but NT found the card first time (after loading the
     manufacturer's driver, of course).
