Yes and it works perfectly with WOODY and Linux 2.4.27

BUT (!!!) thesa cards NEED PCI-X Slots (64Bit with a minimum of 66MHz)

PCI-X with 33MHz can not handel this traffic.

I use at a client a Intel P4/520 with two PCI-X (100MHz)
slots and four 3Com 3c905C in PCI standard slots

I think, tis is not more right, becasue I have readf it
already for more the one year.
