Having just installed Potato 2.2R5 on my workstation, I can say that the
2.2.19 kernels SHOULD support the 905C NICs with the 3c59x.o module. ALL
versions of 2.4.x after around -test7 have been changed so that the 3c59x
will work with it.

Personally, I think that the driver will work fine and the error is
somewhere else. Prior to the fixes to the 3c59x.o driver, it would load
with a 905C, was able to receive packets just fine, and was totally and
completely unable to respond.

Sounds to me like the module isn't the right one for the kernel you've got
running, actually.
