I have a 00:0a.0: 3Com PCI 3c905C Tornado at 0xd800. Which has been working fine for a few months. i updated the kernel to 2.4.19-pre8 for the ide promise ata/133 card. no problem works fine. So the 3c59x.c card was working to though it did have a bad performance problem. looking at ifconfig said it had alot of tx carrier errors (70% of packets ) becaus i had moved the machine etc.. i check the cables etc.. all seem fine. so i dropped the driver back to the one in 2.4.18 and all seems fine again. anyone any ideas ?
