Newbie: Install networking problems

[Rory Campbell-Lange <rory@campbell-lange.net>]

Hi
I'm trying to link to an ethernet network with an EtherLink XL PCI
3C900-TPO card.

The network cannot be seen either before or after install.

The card is not shown to be 'unsupported' at
<http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO-12.html#ss12.3>
although this does list the following two PCI network cards as unsupported:
*   3Com 3C359 Velocity XL PCI
*   3Com 3C339 Velocity PCI

Do I need to compile something into the kernel?

Thanks for any help.
Rory
