First I would believe you need to provide more information to get serious 
help, unless someone else happend to have this exact problem... First, you 
either got the latest 3c59X.c (compiled it how 3com or HOWTO's tell you) 
then compile it so it becomes 3c59X.o and put it in the 
/lib/modules/(whatever your kernel version is)/net. Then in /etc/modules 
file, add the line 3c59X and then reboot. That is probably the most 
effecient way (for modules), rather than using the netconfig program. If 
3com supports linux for that card, I'd go to their site and get the latest 
3c59X driver for linux.
