Well, this one of "us people" would recompile the kernel to include
support for the 3com 3c590/3c900 series of network cards -- I think
they're called  "Vortex/Boomerang".

We use 3c900 series ethernet setups here at the library where I work (not
as cards though; they're usually right smack dab on the motherboard) and
they work spiffy.
