[newbie] Problem with Mandrake 6.0 detection of Ethernet card

[Kevin Fife]

I am trying to install Mandrake 6.0 on a Pentium-III 450mhz Gateway computer
with a 3Com 3C905C (Tornado) Ethernet card. I can install and configure the
system fine up to the point of detecting the Ethernet card. I have tried the
3C90x and the 3C59x with autoprobe with no success.

I know that the card works in Windows 98, and when I attach the patch cable,
it auto-senses and the 100 light is green and the activity light flashes on
the card.

Any ideas?
