Hello,

I am trying to load the 3c59x module for two 3c905CX TXNM cards in a
dachstein LRP (Kernel 2.2.19).  The module seems to load ok.

I have the following in my logs.  (with debug=6 only options)

Mar 10 22:14:19  kernel: 3c59x.c:v0.99Rb 8/8/2000 Donald Becker,
becker@scyld.com

autoselect/Autonegotiate interface.

Mar 10 22:14:19  kernel:   8K byte-wide RAM 5:3 Rx:Tx split,

7809. 
Mar 10 22:14:19  kernel:   Enabling bus-master transmits and whole-frame
receives. 


But I can't ping outside through either interface.  I know the LRP
configuration is ok, because I have an identical machine with 3c905b
cards in it and all works fine booting off the same diskette.

I don't really know where to go from here.  Thought that I wouldn't have
any probs with 3com cards.

Any help would be appreciated.
