Yeah, the docs list that as the "Vortex/Boomerang" driver, and it's
supposed to be appropriate for the PCI 900s. I think there are at
least three versions of that card, though (A,B,C?), and some work best
with a 3Com driver. Like I says, check the 3Com website for specifics
... and do read 3Com's readme thoroughly for warnings. I no longer
have a copy of it or I'd just send it to you.
