There's also the 3c5x9utils package for the card itself. That will allow
you to change the settings if you have to, similar to the config program
that used to ship with those cards. Might be necessary if you've got a
'509 sitting around, and have no idea if it's set to the typical IRQ
10/IO 0x300 (well, typical in the DOS 6.22/Win3.11 setups we were doing
way back when) or not.
