Hi All !

I read all good tips on the freezing problem with the 905B, and upgraded
my 2.2.5 Kernel system (suse 6.1) running on a DELL Optiplex PII/450 to
the following driver: 3c59x.c:v0.99L 5/28/99 Donald Becker 

All seemed OK, but still the freezing is there. All network connections
freeze regulary for a couple of minutes. After a couple of minutes net-
work connectivity seems to be restored (as I can see in responses to a ping).

I do NOT see any log file entries, and the stats on my interface are like
this:  RX packets:604251 errors:12 dropped:0 overruns:1 frame:18
          TX packets:7024 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:80 txqueuelen:100 

Are there still tips left to try ??

(PS, it is 10 mbit/s I'm running...)
