G'day!

I'ver got a problem with a 3Com 3c556B card in an IBM A21p Thinkpad:
it just doesn't work.

SuSE Linux 9.3, Standard-SuSE kernel 2.6.11.4-20a-default

NET: Registered protocol family 17
ath0: no IPv6 routers present
cs: memory probe 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff: clean.
PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:03.0 (0000 -> 0003)
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] enabled at IRQ 11
ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:00:03.0[A] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11
3c59x: Donald Becker and others. www.scyld.com/network/vortex.html

PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:03.0 to 64
*** EEPROM MAC address is invalid.
3c59x: vortex_probe1 fails.  Returns -22
3c59x: probe of 0000:00:03.0 failed with error -22

Is there any patch already available?

Regards
