Saya kira sudah, berikut ini petikan Ethernet-HOWTO tentang 3C90X:
: 5.1.15. 3c900 / 3c905
:
: Status -- Supported
:
: These cards (aka `Boomerang', aka EtherLink III XL) have been recently
: released to take over the place of the 3c590/3c595 cards. Cameron
: Spitzer of 3Com writes that the ``3C900 has a scatter gather bus
: master controlled by a descriptor ring in main memory. Aside from
: that, it's a lot like 3C590.''
:
: You may still be able to get a couple of these cards at a reduced
: price through one of 3Com's evaluation deals, if you are quick.
:
: To use this card with v2.0 kernels, you must obtain the updated
: 3c59x.c driver from Donald's site at:
:
: Vortex-Page <http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/vortex.html>
:
: This updated 3c59x driver allows you to use the 3c900 in a 3c59x
: compatible mode, and has been reported to be quite stable. Note that
: this updated driver may be snuck into the v2.0 source tree at a later
: date.)
:
: On the same WWW page, you will also find the experimental boomerang.c
: driver which uses some of the enhancements of the 3c900 over that
: which is available on the 3c59x cards. Since this is a
: new/experimental driver, you may be better off in using the updated
: 3c59x.c if system stability is a primary concern.
:
: Donald has set up a mailing list for Vortex driver support
: announcements and etc. To join the list, just do:

Salam,
Tito.
BTW: Haram nggak sih saya ngutip HOWTOs seperti itu?
