Hi,
though replying to myselfe :), first thank you very much for your hints!
It seems that 3com 3c905 cards would be the slow but safe solution --- I
know that they work fine because that´s what in use in our current Debian
Servers. SMCs seem to be a better choice because they are faster, but using
a card with RTL chips is out of question. I have two of them at home, and
had to replace them by 3com cards because none of the RTL cards worked
reliably; they seem to be just crap ...
What other cards would be a good choice? Intel is often recommended, but
which driver do they use?
Hm, is there some nice webpage or FAQ on this issue? Choosing a good NIC
appears to be a common problem.
