I think, like some others, that you have too many digits in that model
number.
A lot of 3Com cards use the '3c59x' or the '3c509' modules.
For the 3c59x module,
/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-<version>/Documentation/networking/vortext.txt.gz
has a lot of info. It claims the following cards use this driver :
3c590 Vortex 10Mbps
3c592 EISA 10mbps Demon/Vortex
3c597 EISA Fast Demon/Vortex
3c595 Vortex 100baseTx
3c595 Vortex 100baseT4
3c595 Vortex 100base-MII
3Com Vortex
3c900 Boomerang 10baseT
3c900 Boomerang 10Mbps Combo
3c900 Cyclone 10Mbps TPO
3c900B Cyclone 10Mbps T
3c900 Cyclone 10Mbps Combo

3c905 Boomerang 100baseTx
3c905 Boomerang 100baseT4
3c905B Cyclone 100baseTx
