Could more specifically state whether the driver works in either or any of

100M Full Duplex ?
100M Half Duplex ?

as I've seen oddities with 3c905B even on NT4 latest driver. This seemed to
be dependent on duplex settings....

Also whether you've tried forcing the link speed via conf.modules or simply
let it autonegotiate up to the hub speed?


Thanks.

The problem is that I've a 3c905B and this model doesn't work in 100Mbit
mode with the 0.99E driver on kernel version 2.0.35.

We really don't have any enemies.  It's just that some of our best
friends are trying to kill us.
