Re: 3c905C Drivers
The 905C support was broken in 2.2.18pre21, which ships with potato. The best way to fix that is via a new kernel, but that may be messy to get on the new machine without the network.

Re: 3c905C Drivers
Was is still broken that recently? I thought that potato boot disks worked ok with the 905c, and that it was broken with slink. Of course, I get confused, since I still have a bunch of 3c905b cards floating around. As for a new kernel, It's not too bad to do a boot disk with a custom kernel... of course, that can be kind of a chicken and egg problem for someone without an existing installation around! Thanks for the clarification on the version. --Rich Simon Law wrote: The 905C support was broken in 2.2.18pre21, which ships with potato.

RE: 3c905C Drivers
I tried to get this to work. I tried 2 different NIC cards and the built in one on my laptop. I could not get 1 NIC (the older one) to work and my laptop. It did however work with my new NIC. (this is on kernel 2.2.18) using Debian's 2.2r2. All 3 seemed to work great with 2.4.X kernel. I am not sure about using kernel 2.2.19 included in r3. So not sure what your success would be with the 2.2.19 kernel, but it should work with the 2.4.X kernel. -Original Message- From: Jason Majors [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, May 13, 2001 3:18 PM To: The Reutzels Cc: Debian User Subject: Re: 3c905C Drivers The 3c59x kernel module covers that card.
