First, run:
#dmesg
to see if you can guess the name of your card as recognized by you Linux. Sometimes, your system will pick the most compatible driver if there is none exactly like yours.
Then, the net drivers like 3com pcmcia are located under the Linux source tree; look for that name in,
./drivers/net/pcmcia

Hi guys,
A nice specific question.
I am half-way through installing gentoo linux and I have run into a bit of a problem.
I have a 3com PCMCIA network card that uses the 3c575_cb module to run.
Gentoo nicely autodetected this for me when the machine booted up and DHCP'd an address and everything, which was nice.
However I then went on to install the 2.4.26-gentoo-r9 kernel sources and I cannot anywhere in the kernel config (or grepping the kernel sources for the name or parts of the name of the module) find the option to compile in this particular network driver.
Does anybody know where the option is ? I looked in the PCMCIA drivers and in the Network drivers to no avail.
