It's been my experience that the recent 3Com cards in the 905 series
(3C905C onward) does not like the kernel driver.  I experienced the exact
same problems you described.  However, I found that the driver from the
3Com web site worked fine on 2.2.1{2,3,4,5} so far =:)

Are you experiencing some problems with this driver and later kernels?  If
so, can you elaborate?  I'd like to find out if we also suffer the same
problems.

Incidentally, we found last week that Linux kernel's FIFO implementation
was a little unreliable.
